What is Green Silicon Carbide?
Green Silicon Carbide is an extremely hard (Knoop 2600 or Mohs 9.4) man made mineral that possesses high thermal conductivity (100 W/m-K). lt also has high strength of elevated temperatures (at 1 OOO°C, Green SiC is 7.5 times stronger than Al203). Green SiC has a modulus of elasticity of 410 GPa, with no decrease in strength up to 1600°C, and it does not melt at normal pressures but instead dissociates of 2815.5°C.
Green SiC is an entirely new batch composition made from Silica sand and coke, and is extremely pure. lt can be manufactured in many complex bonded shapes, which are utilized for superrefractory purposes. Green SC is also ideal for a wide variety of abrasive applications.
