Description

What is silicon carbide?

Silicon carbide (SiC) is a common high-performanceCeramic materials, exists in nature in the form of adamantine. As a new type of engineering ceramics, silicon carbide combines high hardness, high abrasion resistance, high temperature resistance and corrosion resistance, so it is widely used in the manufacture of wear-resistant parts and seals. Among them.Silicon Carbide CeramicsIt is particularly valued in the industrial sector.

Advantages of Silicon Carbide Ceramics

  • High hardness: Silicon carbide ceramics have a hardness close to diamond, much higher than steel and alumina ceramics, making them suitable for use in high wear environments.
  • High wear resistance: As ceramic bushings or wear-resistant bushings, the service life can be significantly extended.
  • Low density: Silicon carbide ceramics have a density of approximately 3.2 g/cm³, which is lighter than metal and reduces the overall weight of the equipment.
  • Excellent corrosion resistance: able to resist acids, alkalis and a variety of chemical media erosion.
  • Good performance of high temperature resistance: it can work stably for a long time under the environment of over 1600℃.

Silicon Carbide Ceramics

Silicon carbide ceramic wear bushings are widely used in:

  • Conveying pipes and wear-resistant parts in mining and metallurgical industries;
  • Ceramic bushings in chemical equipment, pump valve linings;
  • Dedusting pipes and circulating water pumps in thermal power and steel industries;
  • Highly abrasive parts such as sealing rings, nozzles and bearings in the machinery industry.

Properties of Silicon Carbide Ceramics

Silicon carbide ceramic bushings are extremely hard, with a Mohs hardness of 9.2-9.6, second only to diamond. This property allows them to excel in high wear environments, effectively resisting scratches and abrasion and maintaining surface integrity and finish.

Silicon carbide bushings have more than 10 times the wear life of conventional steel and aluminum oxide bushings compared to conventional materials. In a sandblast comparison test, the volumetric wear of the silicon carbide tube was only 0.0022, which is better than the 0.0025 of the 97% aluminum oxide tube.

Silicon carbide ceramic bushings are capable of stable operation in environments up to 1600°C, maintaining high strength and dimensional stability. Their thermal conductivity of 120-200 W/m-K prevents thermal stress failures caused by localized overheating.

This characteristic gives it an irreplaceable advantage in high-temperature production environments such as metallurgy and glass manufacturing, where it can operate stably for long periods of time without affecting performance due to temperature fluctuations.

Silicon carbide ceramic bushings have good corrosion resistance to a wide range of chemical media and can be used for a long time in harsh chemical environments.

Whether it is strong acid, strong alkali or organic solvents and other corrosive media, it is difficult to cause corrosion (only hydrofluoric acid and strong alkali solution can cause erosion). This makes it widely used in chemical and pharmaceutical industries to ensure the safety and reliability of the production process.

Although belonging to ceramic materials, silicon carbide bushings have high strength and certain toughness through advanced preparation process and optimized design.

With a flexural strength of 400-600 MPa and a compressive strength of more than 2,000 MPa, it is capable of withstanding high loads in complex stress environments. The modulus of elasticity of about 400-450 GPa ensures minimal deformation when subjected to force and is suitable for precision assembly.

Processing and production of silicon carbide ceramics

  • Silicon carbide ceramics production processes mainly include reaction sintering, hot press sintering and pressureless sintering, with different processes corresponding to different performance requirements.
  • Silicon carbide machining process requires high precision, often using diamond tools for cutting, grinding and polishing to ensure dimensional accuracy and surface finish.
  • In the manufacture of ceramic bushings, sealing rings and wear-resistant bushings, silicon carbide processing can be customized to achieve complex shapes according to customer needs.
