Posted: September 08, 2011  Views: 87

Silicon carbide is also known as emery or fire-resistant sand. The formula is SiC. It can be used as abrasive and other industrial materials, whose mechanical strength is higher than corundum. Industrial silicon carbide was developed successfully in 1891 as the first man-made abrasive.

Silicon carbide micro-powder can be applied in various areas, such as functional ceramics, advanced refractory, abrasive and metallurgical raw materials. As abrasives, silicon carbide can be used as grinding tools, such as grinding wheel, whetstone, grinding head and abrasive segment.

To process silicon carbide into powders, grinding mills are essential. Kefid Machinery is a leading enterprise of China in grinding machines. It has dozens of grinding mills, which can be divided into five categories: vertical mills, high pressure mills, trapezium mills, European mills and micro powder mills.
