1) Application of nonferrous metal smelting industry

Silicon carbide is used as indirect heating materials with high temperature resistance, high strength, good thermal conductivity and impact resistance, such as tray of distillation furnace, aluminum reduction cell, lining of copper melting furnace, arc plate for zinc powder furnace, thermocouple protection tube, etc

2) Application in iron and steel industry

The use of silicon carbide for corrosion resistance, thermal shock resistance, wear resistance and good heat conduction improves the service life of large blast furnace lining

3) Application of Metallurgical Beneficiation Industry

The hardness of silicon carbide is second only to diamond, and it has strong wear resistance. It is an ideal material for wear-resistant pipes, impellers, pump chambers, cyclones, and bucket liners. Its wear resistance is 5 to 20 times that of cast iron and rubber, and it is also one of the ideal materials for air flight runways

4) Application of building material ceramics and grinding wheel industry

Making use of its thermal conductivity, thermal radiation, high thermal intensity and large characteristics to manufacture thin plate kiln furniture can not only reduce the capacity of kiln furniture, but also improve the installed capacity of the kiln and product quality, shorten the production cycle, and is an ideal indirect material for baking and sintering ceramic glaze

5) Energy saving application

Using good heat conduction and thermal stability as a heat exchanger, the fuel consumption can be reduced by 20%, the fuel can be saved by 35%, and the productivity can be increased by 20-30%. In particular, the wear resistance of the discharge pipeline used in the mine concentrator is 6-7 times that of ordinary wear-resistant materials

In addition, there are new uses. The coarse silicon carbide can be supplied in large quantities, which is not a high-tech product. However, the application of nano silicon carbide powder with high technology content cannot form economies of scale in a short time.

As an abrasive, it can be used as abrasive tools, such as oilstone, grinding head, sand tile, etc.

As a metallurgical deoxidizer and high temperature resistant material.

High purity single crystals can be used to manufacture semiconductors and silicon carbide fibers.

Main application: 3-12 inch single crystal silicon, polycrystalline silicon, potassium arsenide, quartz crystal and other wire cutting. Engineering processing materials for solar photovoltaic industry, semiconductor industry and piezoelectric crystal industry.

It is used in semiconductor, lightning rod, circuit element, high temperature application, ultraviolet detector, structural materials, astronomy, disc brake, clutch, diesel particulate filter, fine wire pyrometer, ceramic film, cutting tools, heating elements, nuclear fuel, jewelry, steel, protectors, catalyst support and other fields.

Silicon carbide can be also used for Folding abrasive abrasive tools

It is mainly used for grinding and polishing of grinding wheel, sandpaper, abrasive belt, oilstone, grinding block, grinding head, grinding paste, monocrystalline silicon, polycrystalline silicon in photovoltaic products and piezoelectric crystals in electronic industry.

When it used in Folding chemical industry. Silicon carbide has the characteristics of corrosion resistance, high temperature resistance, high strength, good thermal conductivity and impact resistance. On the one hand, silicon carbide can be used for various smelting furnace linings, high-temperature furnace components, silicon carbide plates, lining plates, supports, saggers, silicon carbide crucibles, etc.

On the other hand, it can be used as high-temperature indirect heating materials for non-ferrous metal smelting industry, such as vertical retort distillation furnace, distillation furnace tray, aluminum electrolytic cell, copper melting furnace lining, arc plate for zinc powder furnace, thermocouple protection tube, etc; It is used to make advanced silicon carbide ceramic materials such as wear resistance, corrosion resistance and high temperature resistance; It can also be used to make rocket nozzles, gas turbine blades, etc. In addition, silicon carbide is also one of the ideal materials for solar water heaters on highways and runways.
