What are the uses of silicon carbide ceramics?

1. Sealing ring: Because silicon carbide ceramics made of silicon carbide have very good strength, hardness and anti-friction capabilities, and during use, silicon carbide ceramics can well resist the influence of some chemicals. , which is something other substances cannot do, so it is used to make sealing rings. During processing, it can be configured with graphite in a certain proportion, and then it can play a great role in transporting strong alkali and strong acid, which also reflects its good performance in manufacturing sealing rings.

2. Grinding media: Because the strength of silicon carbide ceramics is very good, this material is used in parts of wear-resistant machinery, and we can find that it is used in the grinding media of vibration ball mills and agitation ball mills. And it has very good functional performance.

3. Bulletproof plate: Because the ballistic performance of silicon carbide ceramics is relatively good and the price is relatively cheap, it is widely used in the manufacture of bulletproof armored vehicles. Sometimes it is also used in the manufacture of safes, ship protection and cash transport vehicles, and it well reflects the excellent performance of silicon carbide ceramics, and at the same time satisfies people’s daily life and work needs.

4. Nozzles: Most of the nozzles we use now are made of alumina, aluminum carbide and other materials, but there are also nozzles made of silicon carbide ceramics, which are more expensive than nozzles made of other materials. It is cheap, but the environment in which it is used is subject to certain restrictions. Currently, it is used more often in sandblasting environments with impact and vibration, but overall its performance is still very good.
