green silicon carbide properties and uses
green silicon carbide is a material with high hardness, high wear resistance and good corrosion resistance, which is widely used in many fields. The following are the main properties and uses of green silicon carbide:
Performance
High hardness: The hardness of green silicon carbide is second only to diamond and cubic boron nitride, with a Mohs hardness of 9.5 and a Vickers microhardness of 3000–3300kg/mm².
High wear resistance: Green silicon carbide has very good wear resistance and is suitable for manufacturing wear-resistant parts such as rollers, conveyor belts, ball mill liners, etc.
Corrosion resistance: Green silicon carbide has good corrosion resistance and is suitable for manufacturing chemical reactors, pipelines, pumps and other equipment and parts that require corrosion resistance.
Low thermal expansion coefficient: Green silicon carbide has a low thermal expansion coefficient and is suitable for applications in high temperature deformation and thermal stress.
Self-sharpening: Green silicon carbide abrasives can break the abrasive particles on the surface by themselves during the grinding process, exposing new sharp particles for cutting.
Uniform particle size: The particles of green silicon carbide are evenly distributed, and the particle size can be adjusted according to demand, which can provide a more uniform and fine processing effect.
Applications
