Silicon Carbide (SiC) power modules offer revolutionary new solutions for power applications, offering greater system efficiency in terms of system size, weight and form factor. Their higher operating temperatures, faster switching frequencies and smaller magnetics reduce system costs significantly. Vincotech addresses this challenge with advanced die-attach technology to mitigate SiC’s mechanical properties that decrease its …
Silicon carbide sanding discs offer fine finishes on woodworking projects thanks to their durable yet effective abrasive properties, with minimal grit degradation over time compared to aluminum oxide sandpapers. Selecting an abrasive for your task depends on its requirements and material properties, which include price-efficiency, versatility and aggressive cutting power – qualities silicon carbide sandpaper …
Silicon carbide, more commonly referred to as carborundum, offers superior heat resistance and maintains high mechanical strength at temperatures reaching 1400degC. Furthermore, its extreme hardness, fatigue resistance and chemical stability in aggressive environments are hallmarks of excellence for any material. SiC was first synthesized artificially in 1891 by Edward Acheson when he discovered small black …
Coherent has announced that Japan-based DENSO and Mitsubishi Electric will jointly invest $1 billion into its SiC substrate business, creating a subsidiary offering 150 mm and 200 mm SiC substrates as well as epitaxial wafers. SiC is an attractive material for power semiconductors as it can reduce power loss while operating at higher temperatures than …

Silicon carbide, more commonly referred to as Carborundum, is an extremely hard chemical compound with properties of both metal and insulator at different temperatures. Used in industrial applications requiring long lasting applications. Green SiC is an extremely hard and corrosion resistant ceramic material first synthesized by Edward Acheson in 1891 through the combined heating of …
Silicon carbide, more commonly referred to as corundum, is an extremely hard abrasive material used for grinding and polishing metal specimens. SBM is more cost-effective than diamond and cubic boron nitride, yet maintains higher strength at elevated temperatures than many ceramic materials. Available in various grit sizes from coarse to fine, making it suitable for …
While semiconductor executives lament slow demand and excess inventories, one sector appears to be resilient: silicon carbide power circuits used in electric vehicles. But companies looking to capitalize on this market could run into complications as they transition to 200 mm wafers, prompting shares of Wolfspeed and STM to fall this week. Power Semiconductor Power …
Silicon carbide diamond is an exceptional material with exceptional wear resistance that is particularly appealing for applications involving wear resistance. Production can take place without pressure by infiltrating porous carbon bonded diamond preforms with liquid silicon. The infiltration process results in the formation of a dense graphitic layer at the diamond/silicon interface that offers exceptional …
If you want a truly secure grip on your pistol, there are a couple of solutions. Grip tape or epoxying silicon carbide might do the trick. This process uses high performance 2 part epoxy to cover areas where your hands contact the frame, before pouring granules of silicon carbide in any texture that suits you …
Silicon carbide whiskers are nano-sized single crystal fibers featuring an indefect-free crystal structure and excellent chemical resistance, used primarily to strengthen metal, ceramic and polymer composite materials and increase fracture toughness. After calcination, b-SiC whisker displays significant improvement with respect to stacking faults being eliminated and grain growth nuclei emerging, forming large tabular a-SiC grains …
