Silicon carbide is an inorganic substance with the chemical formula SiC. It is made by smelting quartz sand, petroleum coke (or coal coke) and sawdust through high temperature in a resistance furnace. Silicon carbide is very hard, with a Mohs hardness of 9.5, second only to the world’s hardest diamond (level 10). It has excellent thermal conductivity, and it is a semiconductor that exists in nature in the form of the extremely rare mineral moissanite.
Silicon carbide powder refers to the finely processed silicon carbide powder with fineness to the micron level. It is an inorganic non-metallic material composed of carbon and silicon elements tightly combined.
Silicon carbide powder has characteristics of high hardness, excellent wear resistance, outstanding thermal stability and chemical stability. Based on these characteristics, silicon carbide powder has a wide range of application. It can be used in many industrial fields. Especially in cutting-edge technology fields, such as semiconductor materials, and new energy vehicles, silicon carbide powder plays an irreplaceable role.
The classification of silicon carbide powder
In industrial applications, in order to obtain silicon carbide powder products with uniform particle size distribution, high purity and excellent performance, silicon carbide powder needs to be graded.
Air classifier is the core equipment for the classification of silicon carbide powder, due to following advantages:
– Structural optimization:
It adopts turbo classification and centrifugal separation principles to achieve high classification accuracy.
– Dust-proof design
The grading process is carried out in a closed system, reducing dust pollution and ensuring a clean production environment.
– Intelligent operation
The speed of classifying wheel and the parameters of air flow can be adjusted to meet the needs of different particle sizes.
