Silicon Carbide Ceramics and Silicon Nitride Ceramics

Overview of Silicon Carbide Ceramics

Silicon carbide ceramics are a new type of ceramic material made mainly from silicon carbide powder through high-temperature sintering. Silicon carbide ceramics have high hardness, wear resistance, corrosion resistance, and excellent high temperature resistance, with excellent mechanical, thermal, and electrical properties. Silicon carbide ceramics can be divided into compacted sintered silicon carbide ceramics and reaction sintered silicon carbide ceramics due to different firing processes.

Overview of Silicon Nitride Ceramics

Silicon nitride ceramics are an important high-performance ceramic material. It has excellent mechanical properties, high temperature resistance, corrosion resistance, and thermal conductivity. Compared to silicon carbide ceramics, silicon nitride ceramics are more stable. Silicon nitride ceramics have extremely high hardness and strength, and are therefore widely used in industrial manufacturing and precision machining under high temperature and pressure. 

The difference between silicon carbide ceramics and silicon nitride ceramics

1. Different structures

The structure of silicon carbide ceramics is composed of the bonding force between silicon carbide grains, while the structure of silicon nitride ceramics is composed of silicon nitrogen bonds formed by silicon and nitrogen atoms. Therefore, silicon nitride ceramics are more stable than silicon carbide ceramics.

2. Different uses

Silicon carbide ceramics are commonly used in high-temperature heat treatment fields, such as heat treatment furnace linings, observation windows in the semiconductor industry, and mechanical processing fields. Silicon nitride ceramics are widely used in cutting, grinding, electrical insulation, protection and other fields under high temperature and high pressure conditions in the manufacturing industry.

3. Different performance

Silicon carbide ceramics have excellent high-temperature, wear-resistant, and corrosion-resistant properties, while silicon nitride ceramics not only have high-temperature, wear-resistant, and corrosion-resistant properties, but also excellent thermal conductivity and electrical insulation properties, so they can be applied in a wider range of fields.In short, although both silicon carbide ceramics and silicon nitride ceramics belong to high-performance ceramic materials, their structures, applications, and properties are different. Users need to choose suitable materials according to their own needs.
