reaction bonded silicon carbide overview
Reaction bonded silicon carbide, sometimes referred to as siliconized silicon carbide, is a silicon metal infiltrated ceramic. The infiltration gives the material a unique combination of mechanical, thermal, and electrical properties which can be tuned to the application.
Example Applications
- Hard face seal components
- Ballistic armor
