Hot Pressed Silicon Nitride

Composition

Si3N4

HOT PRESSED SILICON NITRIDE OVERVIEW

By hot pressing silicon nitride, one can achieve nearly zero-porosity. This leads to the exceptional mechanical properties as well as corrosion resistance even in high-temperature applications.

Example Applications

  • Ball bearing components
  • Check valves
