Main applications of silicon carbide micron powder


  It is used for wire sawing of 3- to 12-inch single-crystal silicon, polycrystalline silicon, potassium arsenide, and quartz crystals. It serves as an engineering-grade processing material in the solar photovoltaic, semiconductor, and piezoelectric crystal industries.
Main analytical and testing methods for silicon carbide:
  The silicon content in silicon carbide determines its hardness. The particle size of silicon carbide significantly affects wire EDM, but the most critical factor is the particle shape. During wire EDM, silicon carbide remains in a free‑state condition, and variations in particle morphology have a substantial impact on both cutting efficiency and cut quality.
  Testing method: The silicon content must be determined by atomic absorption spectroscopy (which offers high analytical efficiency and relatively accurate results).
  The particle size of silicon carbide requires an electrical resistance particle analyzer (which is highly efficient).
  Silicon carbide particle‑shape analysis requires the Ruisi RA200 particle analyzer, which can accurately determine particle shape factors and roundness.
