Green Silicon Carbide (SiC) is an extremely hard (Mohs 9.4 / 2600 Knoop) man made mineral that possesses high thermal conductivity and high strength at elevated temperatures (at 1000°C, SiC is 7.5 times stronger than Al2O3). Green SiC is made from Silica sand and coke, and is extremely pure. Hexagonally shaped, it breaks into very sharp particles. Green SiC is harder than Black Silicon carbide, coming in at a 9.4 Mohs and 2600 on the Knoop scale. Green Silicon Carbide is produced in electrical internal resistance furnaces from very high purity silica sand and petroleum coke. Green silicon carbide is produced as the same type as the black silicon carbide, except the different raw materials. Its crystallization has higher purity and hardness.Green silicon carbide is suitable for processing hard alloy, metallic and non-metallic materials with hard and britile feature such as copper, brass, aluminum, magnesium, jewel, optical glass, ceramics etc. Super micropower of it is also a kind of ceramics material. Our company's expert technical team will be happy to assist you.
