Reaction Bonded Silicon Carbide (RBSiC)

Reaction bonded silicon carbide, known as siliconized silicon carbide, is created via a chemical reaction between porous carbon or graphite and molten silicon. This method is commonly referred to as Reaction Sintering.

Sintered Silicon Carbide(SSiC)

Sintered in a vacuum furnace using high purity ultra-fine silicon carbide powder (sub-micron) at temperatures between 2100°C and 2200°C, the sintering process effectively densifies the green body.
