The modern method of manufacturing silicon carbide for the abrasives, metallurgical, and refractories industries is basically the same as that developed by Acheson. A mixture of pure silica sand and carbon in the form of finely ground coke is built up around a carbon conductor within a brick electrical resistance-type furnace. Electric current is passed through the conductor, bringing about a chemical reaction in which the carbon in the coke and silicon in the sand combine to form SiC and carbon monoxide gas. A furnace run can last several days, during which temperatures vary from 2,200° to 2,700° C (4,000° to 4,900° F) in the core to about 1,400° C (2,500° F) at the outer edge. The energy consumption exceeds 100,000 kilowatt-hours per run. At the completion of the run, the product consists of a core of green to black SiC crystals loosely knitted together, surrounded by partially or entirely unconverted raw material. The lump aggregate is crushed, ground, and screened into various sizes appropriate to the end use.
Application Direction | Silicon Carbide | Description |
Sandblasting and engraving | black | generally purchase F36, F46, and the content requirement is about 97.5-98%; for export orders, the content requirement is between 98-98.5%. Such materials have hardness and cleanliness requirements. |
Grinding wheel and sandpaper | black | generally 46#-90#, the grinding wheel uses F standard; the sandpaper uses P standard. |
Brake pads | black | generally use CF500# and CF600# materials. |
Furnace wall coating | black | generally uses 97% 325mesh. |
Abrasives | Black | Customers purchase products concentrated in coarser grades than F220, with F46, F60, and F80 performing better. |
