Pressureless Sintered Silicon Carbide

Pressureless sintered silicon carbide (SSiC) parts made from high purity, ultrafine SiC powder. Seal rings, nozzles and wear sleeves for service in high concentrations of acid or alkali medium.

Overview

About Pressureless Sintered Silicon Carbide

Pressureless sintered of silicon carbide in high purity and ultrafine silicon carbide powder as raw material, add a small amount of sintering additives at 2100 °C high temperature sintering vacuum environment, the products obtained almost entirely density, excellent mechanical properties of ceramic materials. It can be used in the high concentrations of acid or alkali medium. This material is widely application in mechanical seal face, valve bearing and oil, chemical industry, aerospace, automotive and other fields.

They have the property of excellent resistant-corrosion, high mechanical strength, high thermal conductivity, good self-lubrication, used as seal faces, bearings and tubes in spacecraft, machinery, metallurgy, printing and dyeing, food stuff, pharmaceutical, auto industry and so on. When the SiC faces are combined with graphite faces the friction is the smallest and they can be made into mechanical seals which are able to work in highest working requirements.
