Green Silicon Carbide is produced basically in the same way as black silicon carbide in a resistance type electric furnace with petroleum coke, quartz sand and other materials. It has a good hardness, strong cutting ability, stable chemical properties and excellent heat-conducting property.
Silicon carbide (SiC), also known as carborundum, is a compound of silicon and carbon with chemical formula SiC. It occurs in nature as the extremely rare mineral moissanite. Silicon carbide powder has been mass-produced since 1893 for use as an abrasive. Grains of silicon carbide can be bonded together by sintering to form very hard ceramics that are widely used in applications requiring high endurance, such as car brakes, car clutches and ceramic plates in bulletproof vests.
We offer silicon carbide with content of SiC 85%,90%,95% ,98%,99%

Silica, silicon carbide, silicon carbide, also known as carbon refractory sand, is made of quartz sand and petroleum coke, sawdust and other raw materials in smelting in electric resistance furnace, high temperature and be become.Green silicon carbide black silicon carbide and silicon carbide two commonly used basic varieties: (1) black silicon carbide containing SiC by about 95%, its toughness is higher than the green silicon carbide, mostly used for processing low tensile strength of material, such as glass, ceramics, stone, refractory material, cast iron and nonferrous metal, etc.;(2) the green silicon carbide containing SiC98 % above, good self-sharpening, mostly used for processing hard alloy, titanium alloy and optical glass, also used for honing cylinder jacket and fine grinding HSS cutting tools.
Green silicon carbide for refractories
Green silicon carbide(sic) can also be used for refractory applications because of its high strength, low expansion rate and good thermal conductivity for refractory materials, special ceramics, coating and plastic fillings etc.

Applications of refractory grade green silicon carbide
Products of various high grade shaped and unshaped refractory materials
Used for semi-conductor deoxidizer
Used as deoxidizer in steel making industry to improve quality and productivity of steel
Production of silicon carbide rod in electric thermal industry
Black silicon carbide use quartz sand and petroleum coke as the main raw material, smelting the raw material at high temperature electric resistance furnace . Black silicon carbide contains SiC about 95%. The toughness is higher than that of green silicon carbide, black crystals. The microhardness is HV3100-3280kg / mm², brittle and sharp and has a certain electrical conductivity and thermal conductivity. Abrasive made of black silicon carbide is suitable for grinding cast iron, nonferrous metals and rubber, leather, plastic, wood, minerals and other non-metallic materials. Additionally, you can make advanced refractory material and so on.
