Why Choose Silicon Carbide?
- Exceptional Corrosion Resistance: Silicon carbide boasts excellent resistance against corrosive environments, ensuring durability in challenging conditions.
- Superior Wear and Abrasion Resistance: Experience unparalleled longevity with silicon carbide’s remarkable wear and abrasion resistance, extending the lifespan of your components.
- Low Coefficients of Friction and Thermal Expansion: SiC minimizes friction and thermal expansion, optimizing performance and efficiency in diverse applications.
- High Thermal Conductivity: Benefit from efficient heat dissipation with silicon carbide’s high thermal conductivity, enhancing the overall reliability of your systems.
- Hardness Beyond Tungsten Carbide: Silicon carbide surpasses tungsten carbide in hardness, ensuring robust and enduring performance.
Tailored Solutions for Your Applications:
At Junty, we understand that each application is unique. That’s why our silicon carbide solutions are designed to be adaptable and versatile. Whether you seek cost-effectiveness, chemical resistance, or enhanced performance, Junty has the right silicon carbide grade for you.
- Reaction Bonded Silicon Carbide (RB SiC) is a very cost-effective material that has good chemical resistance and excellent wear properties.
- Sintered Silicon Carbide (SSiC) is the most resistant to chemically hostile fluids and is best for high temperature applications because it contains no free silicon.
- A mixture of silicon carbide and free graphite is known as graphite-loaded silicon carbide. To enhance the tribological performance and lubricity of RB SiC (RB SiC + C) or SSiC (SSiC + C), graphite is added to create a composite.
Experience the Junty Advantage:
- Expertise: Over two decades of expertise in delivering high-performance materials.
- Innovation: Cutting-edge solutions crafted to meet and exceed industry standards.
- Customization: Tailor-made silicon carbide solutions to suit your specific needs.
