Do you know the use of silicon carbide?

Silicon carbide is widely used, mainly used in functional ceramics, advanced refractories, abrasives and metallurgical raw materials, and can also be used for wire cutting of 3- 12-inch monocrystalline silicon, polycrystalline silicon, potassium arsenide and timely crystals. Engineering processing materials for solar photovoltaic industry, semiconductor industry and piezoelectric crystal industry.

In the future, silicon carbide will be mainly used in the fields of semiconductors, lightning rods, circuit components, high-temperature applications, ultraviolet detectors, structural materials, astronomy, disc brakes, clutches, diesel particulate filters, filament pyrometers, ceramic membranes, cutting tools, heating elements, nuclear fuel, jewelry, steel, protective devices and catalyst carriers.
