Measuring Silicon Carbide Particle Size

Particle Characterization

Silicon carbide (SiC) has a range of physical properties that makes it a versatile and useful material. It is one of the hardest materials known, second only to diamond, has a relatively low density (approximately the same as aluminum), good wear and corrosion resistance and low thermal expansion and high thermal conductivity leading to excellent thermal shock resistance.

Measuring Silicon Carbide Particle Size
Due to its high hardness, silicon carbide is used in many abrasive applications either as a slurry or fixed in a matrix such as grinding wheels. It is also highly abrasion-resistant, so can be used in parts such as nozzles, seals, and bearing components.
