What's SiC?

Features of SiC (Silicon Carbide)

High Thermal Conductivity

SiC has a significantly higher thermal conductivity compared to general alumina. This excellent thermal conductivity enables efficient heat exchange, contributing significantly to gas savings and the realization of a carbon-neutral society.

Excellent Heat Resistance

SiC exhibits superior thermal shock resistance compared to alumina and corundum mullite. It can withstand sudden temperature changes, making it suitable for use in high-temperature environments.

Optimal Material Proposals

SiC can propose various materials depending on the application. It can meet diverse needs with options such as silicon-containing SiC known for its strength, recrystallized SiC usable even under high-temperature oxidation atmospheres, nitride bonded SiC, and composite materials of silicon carbide and silicon nitride.

Minimal Decline in 
High-Temperature Strength

SiC experiences minimal decline in strength and high-temperature creep deformation. Therefore, it is widely used as a structural material inside furnaces (e.g., kiln furniture, beams, rollers, heater protection tubes, etc.).
