What is Aluminum Silicon Carbide?Silicon carbide can be found in common grinding wheels, blades, and aluminum silicon carbide. It is harder than corundum but less hard than cubic boron, boron carbide and diamond. This ceramic material is a good substrate for composites because of its high thermal conductivity and high modulus. The silicon used in AlSiC material (aluminium silic carbide) is of this type. This silicon carbide is used in composite materials to provide 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. The micropores in this preform are not present in ordinary silicon-carbide ceramics. The aluminum molten is then cast hydraulically into the micropores with special equipment under vacuum to form aluminum-silicon carbide. The aluminum silicon carbide material has the advantage that it combines ceramics with the low thermal expand coefficient and thermal conductivity of aluminum. It also has the strength of cast-iron. Its price is lower and its performance is better than tungsten. It is also able to form large and complex shapes, which tungsten can't.

Sintered ceramics with low temperature oxidation of silicon Aluminum Carbide
In common low-temperature oxidation ceramic preform manufacturing, a silica film will be formed over the silicon carbide surface. This layer will affect the thermal conductivity so that it cannot exceed 180W/mK at room temperature (no mater how much is claimed). 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.
