Why Choose SiC 98% Powder for Casting Applications?
SiC 98% powder is specifically engineered for high-precision casting processes that demand minimal impurities and uniform chemical activity. The ultra-fine powder reacts quickly with molten metals, enhancing deoxidation efficiency and improving surface finish and dimensional stability of cast components.
By using this high-purity grade, foundries can reduce defects, improve metal quality, and maintain tighter control over chemical composition, which is critical in aerospace, automotive, and high-end industrial castings.
What Are the Key Technical Specifications of SiC 98% Powder?
| Parameter | Typical Range |
|---|---|
| SiC Purity | 97.5% – 98.5% |
| Particle Size | ≤200 mesh |
| Metallic Impurities (Fe + Al) | ≤0.3% |
| Fixed Carbon | ≥2.8% |
| True Density | 3.15–3.25 g/cm³ |
| Bulk Density | 0.85–1.05 g/cm³ |
| Moisture | ≤0.2% |
These specifications ensure ultra-fine, consistent powder for precision casting and metallurgical applications.
How Does Ultra-Fine 98% SiC Powder Improve Casting Quality?
The fine particle size allows rapid dissolution in molten metal, which enhances deoxidation and stabilizes furnace reactions. This leads to fewer inclusions, reduced slag formation, and smoother surfaces on finished castings.
For high-precision applications, SiC 98% powder ensures chemical uniformity throughout the melt, enabling more consistent and defect-free production.
