Green Silicon Carbide 400#600#800#1000#Silicon Carbide Powder

Green Silicon Carbide (SiC) is a high-purity, synthetic abrasive material produced in an electric resistance furnace using silica sand and petroleum coke as raw materials, with the addition of salt. It is a harder and more brittle variant compared to black silicon carbide.

Key Properties:

  • Hardness: ~9.5 on the Mohs scale (harder than black SiC and aluminum oxide)

  • Purity: Higher than black SiC (≥97% SiC)

  • Crystal Structure: Sharp, angular grains

  • Thermal Conductivity: High

  • Chemical Resistance: Excellent against acids and alkalis

  • Fracture Toughness: Lower than black SiC, making it sharper but more brittle

Applications:

  1. Abrasive Tools:

    • Used in grinding wheels, sandpaper, and abrasive blasting for hard materials like carbide, ceramics, and glass.

  2. Lapping & Polishing:

    • Ideal for precision finishing of tungsten carbide, titanium, and optical lenses.

  3. Refractory Materials:

    • Added to high-performance refractories for improved thermal shock resistance.

  4. Semiconductor & Electronics:

    • Used in wafer grinding and as a substrate material for high-power electronics.

  5. Wire Sawing:

    • Employed in cutting silicon wafers and photovoltaic cells.

  6. Anti-Slip & Coatings:

    • Added to paints and coatings for slip resistance.

Advantages Over Black Silicon Carbide:

  • Higher purity and sharper grains → better cutting performance.

  • More efficient for precision grinding of hard, brittle materials.

  • Less iron contamination, making it suitable for semiconductor applications.

Disadvantages:

  • More expensive than black SiC due to higher purity requirements.

  • More brittle, leading to faster wear in some applications.
