Technical data N-SiC
N-SiC "Nitride Bonded Silicon Carbide"
The maximum operating temperature of N-SiC slabs is 1450 °C, these slabs are ideal for long firing times between 1200 and 1450 °C. N-SiC is made of silicon carbide bonded with silicon nitride (Si3N4). It is highly chemically stable and suitable for firing products that need to be prevented from oxidizing.
In terms of resistance to oxidation, thermal shock and strength, this material is a class better than O-SiC. It is used as plates, beams, refractory fittings, for aluminum smelting.
Technical data O-SiC
Oxide Bonded Silicon Carbide (O-SiC)
O-SiC plates are used for firing porcelain and ceramics at temperatures lower than 1450° C. O-SiC slabs are made of silicon carbide bonded with silicon dioxide. This material has a very high thermal conductivity (almost 10 times higher than mullite). The heat is transferred from the material to the products by means of radiation in the infrared region, which bring very high thermal efficiency.
