Audited Supplier Silicon nitride is a man-made compound synthesized through several different chemical reaction methods. Parts are pressed and sintered by well-developed methods to produce a ceramic with a unique set of outstanding properties. The material is dark gray to black in color and can be polished to a very smooth reflective surface, giving parts a striking appearance.
High-performance silicon nitride materials were developed for automotive engine wear parts, such as valves and cam followers, and proven effective. The cost of the ceramic parts never dropped enough to make the ceramics feasible in engines and turbochargers. The high-quality bodies developed for these demanding high-reliability applications are available today and can be used in many severe mechanical, thermal, and wear applications.
The prime features of silicon nitride products
1.Low density: 3.2 g/cm3 with lightweight than most other technical ceramics
2. Superior hardness, it's one of most hardest technical ceramic than others
3. Great wear resistance due to its exceptional hardness and self-lubricity
