What is Aluminum Silicon Carbide?Silicon carbide can be found in common grinding stones, wheels and blades. It has a higher hardness than diamond, but a lower hardness than cubic boron-nitride and boron carbide. This ceramic material is a good substrate for composites because of its high modulus, and thermal conductivity. This type of silicon carbide is the one used in AlSiC material (aluminum silica carbide). This silicon carbide is used to make composite materials. It has a very pure composition, ensuring high thermal conductivity.

Silicon aluminum carbide for industrial use

In industrial manufacturing silicon carbide is first made into preforms (ceramics) that are shaped like the final products. This preform differs from normal silicon carbide ceramics because it has many permeable pores. The aluminum-silicon carbide is formed by hydraulically casting molten aluminium into the micropores in a vacuum environment using special equipment. Aluminum-silicon carbide composite material has the advantage that it combines ceramics with the low thermal expand coefficient and thermal conductivity of pure aluminium, as well as the strength of cast Iron. Its performance and price are superior to tungsten. It is also able to form large-sized, special-shaped components that tungsten can’t.

Sintered ceramics with low temperature oxidation of silicon Aluminum Carbide

In the common method of low temperature oxidation sintering, a thick layer of silica will be formed on the surface silicon carbide. This will severely affect the thermal conduction of the material. The thermal conductivity for the product at room temperatures cannot exceed the claimed 180W/mK. Our self-developed process for manufacturing ceramic preforms has a silicon dioxide content that is only 1/8 the amount of the conventional method. However, our product’s thermal conductivity is greater than 240W/mK.

Price of Aluminum Silicon Carbide

Aluminum silicon carbide’s cost is also affected by the size of the particles and their purity. The price of a large quantity will be lower. On our official website, you can find the price of Aluminum Silicon Carbide.
