Silicon Carbide (SiC), commonly referred to as carborundum, is an extremely hard and durable ceramic material with low thermal expansion rates and great acid/lye resistance. Asbestos occurs as yellow to green to bluish black iridescent crystals that, when inhaled, may produce sustained nodular fibrosing alveolitis similar to that caused by crocidolite asbestos. Density Silicon carbide (SiC) has a density of 3.21 g/cm3, much lower than silicon which has 2.33 g/cm3. As one of the strongest and hardest materials, SiC makes for ideal use in applications requiring high strength and abrasion resistance as well as its wide band gap and excellent thermal conductivity – perfect for power electronics that operate at …
