Silicon Carbide Powder F320–F1200

Silicon Carbide Powder F320–F1200

Introduction:

Get high-purity silicon carbide powder from F320 to F1200 grit. Ideal for grinding, ceramics, and metallurgy. Certified Chinese manufacturer with fast global shipping.

Products Introduction

Silicon carbide powder is a high-performance synthetic material composed of silicon and carbon. As one of the hardest industrial abrasives (Mohs 9.1), it is widely used for grinding, polishing, ceramic reinforcement, and metallurgical applications. Our black silicon carbide powder, available from F320 to F1200 grit, offers excellent thermal conductivity, oxidation resistance, and mechanical strength, making it ideal for high-precision and high-temperature use cases.

  • High Hardness

    Superior performance in processing hard materials like metals, ceramics, and stones.

  • High Thermal Conductivity

    Improves the stability and durability of the product under thermal stress..

  • ow Coefficient of Thermal Expansion

    Reduces the risk of cracks and deformation in high-temperature environments.

  • Abrasion Resistance

    Long-lasting performance in abrasive applications such as blasting and surface finishing.

Key Features

  • Purity: ≥98.5%
  • Available sizes: F320 – F1200, including custom micro-powders
  • Color: Black (Alpha SiC), also available in green
  • Hardness: Mohs 9.1
  • Thermal Stability: up to 2000°C

Applications

  • Precision polishing and lapping of metal, glass, and ceramics
  • High-performance refractory material additive
  • Metallurgical deoxidizing and carburizing agent
  • Thermal conductive ceramic formulations

Types of Silicon Carbide Powder

We supply two main types of silicon carbide powder based on color and purity:

  • Black Silicon Carbide Powder – Contains ≥98.5% SiC. It is tougher and suitable for heavy-duty grinding, blasting, and refractory applications.
  • Green Silicon Carbide Powder – Higher purity (≥99%) and sharper grains. Used in precision polishing of glass, ceramics, and semiconductors.

We also distinguish by grain size:

  • Macro Grit Powder (F320–F800): Ideal for coarse grinding and refractory use.
  • Micro Powder (F1000–F1200 and sub-micron): Used for fine polishing, lapping, and electronics.

How to Select the Right Silicon Carbide Powder

Choosing the right SiC powder depends on your application:

  • For grinding: F320–F600 black SiC is ideal for bonded abrasives and coated tools.
  • For polishing and lapping: F800–F1200 black or green SiC provides fine surface finish.
  • For ceramic sintering: Use high-purity green SiC micropowders below 1 micron.
  • For metallurgy: Coarser F240–F400 black SiC is effective as a deoxidizer and carburizer.

Real-World Application Case

One of our clients in Europe—a precision ceramics manufacturer—uses our F800 and F1000 silicon carbide powder in the production of ceramic valve components for the chemical industry. The consistent grain size and purity of our powder allowed them to reduce rejection rates by 18% compared to a previous supplier.

Another client in Southeast Asia sources F600 black SiC powder for photovoltaic panel edge polishing, citing lower wear on diamond tooling and better gloss levels after processing.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is silicon carbide powder used for?

It is used in abrasive tools, ceramic reinforcement, polishing compounds, and high-temperature metallurgical additives. Common industries include solar glass, automotive, aerospace, and advanced ceramics.

What is the difference between F600 and F800 SiC powder?

F600 has a coarser particle size than F800 and is typically used for medium polishing or rough lapping. F800 is better suited for fine finishing and achieving tight tolerances on ceramic or metal surfaces.

How do you ensure quality consistency between batches?

All production batches are analyzed for particle size distribution (via laser diffraction), chemical composition (XRF analysis), and moisture content. Retained samples are stored for quality tracking over 12 months.

Can you supply nano or submicron silicon carbide powder?

Yes, we offer customized milling services for clients needing SiC powder below 1 micron for electronics, composite materials, or additive manufacturing applications.

How do I choose between green and black silicon carbide powder?

Black SiC is tougher and more cost-effective—suitable for heavy-duty grinding. Green SiC is purer and sharper, ideal for polishing hard alloys, glass, and semiconductors.
