Is silicon carbide powder an insulating material?
Silicon carbide is a high-temperature and high-power semiconductor material in the semiconductor field. However, there is a fundamental difference between silicon carbide semiconductor materials and silicon carbide abrasive materials in the field of grinding. Silicon carbide in the semiconductor industry is a single crystal grown by PVT or HTCVD method. It shows different conductivity with temperature change. In the field of grinding, silicon carbide powder is a silicon carbide polymer produced by high-temperature melting and smelting. It is an insulting material at room temperature and suitable for making silicon carbide functional ceramics.
