The functions and uses of green silicon carbide are very extensive, mainly including abrasives, refractory materials, functional ceramics, metallurgical mineral processing, electrical and chemical industries and other fields.
In the abrasives and grinding tools industry, green silicon carbide has the characteristics of high purity and large crystallization, which ensures its excellent cutting performance and stable physical state of cutting micro powder. It is widely used in sandblasting, surface treatment, silicon carbide nozzles, grinding and polishing of optical glass, hard alloy, titanium alloy and bearing steel, and grinding of high-speed steel tools. In addition, green silicon carbide is also used to make resin grinding wheels and ceramic grinding wheels, cutting discs, emery cloth belts, high-temperature silicon carbon rod heating elements, etc.
In the field of refractory materials, green silicon carbide is used for refractory linings of smelting furnaces, steelmaking deoxidizers, cast iron organization improvers, refractory bricks, high-temperature furnace components, supports, iron troughs, iron ladle linings, etc.
In terms of functional ceramics, green silicon carbide uses its high thermal conductivity, strong thermal radiation, and high thermal strength to manufacture thin kiln furniture, which not only reduces the capacity of kiln furniture, but also improves the kiln capacity and product quality, shortens the production cycle, and is an ideal indirect material for ceramic glaze baking and sintering.
In the field of metallurgical mineral processing, green silicon carbide is second only to diamond in hardness and has strong wear resistance. It is an ideal material for wear-resistant pipes, impeller pump chamber cyclones, and ore bucket linings; its wear resistance is 5-20 times that of cast iron and rubber service life, and it is also one of the ideal materials for aviation runways.
In the electrical and chemical industry, green silicon carbide is used for electric heating elements, high-temperature semiconductor materials, far-infrared boards, lightning arrester valve materials, chemical pipelines, valves, etc.
In summary, green silicon carbide plays an important role in many industrial fields due to its unique physical and chemical properties.
