Non Oxide Ceramic Powders

Also we work with non oxide materials.

Non oxide ceramic powders. Unlike the conventional sintering techniques such as hot. Most advanced non oxide ceramics such as carbides and nitrides are very difficult to sinter using conventional means because of very strong covalent bonds in their crystal structures and extremely low atomic diffusivity. As with the refractory ceramics above these other materials developed and or used for previous applications are thoroughly documented and available to solve the challenge of future oem ceramic parts orders. However unlike the oxide market the non oxide market.

The non oxide ceramic powder market is evolving in a different direction than the oxide ceramic powder market. Hardness light weight strength and cost effectiveness all figure prominently in that decision making process. The invention relates to fine non oxide ceramic powders mex wherein me b al si ti zr hf v y ta nb mo w la fe co ni and or cr and x c n b and si or combinations thereof with the exception of si 3 n 4 greater than 100 nm and aln greater than 200 nm. The lightest and hardest ceramic material ceramtec offers is available as ssic sintered silicon carbide and sisic silicon infiltrated silicon carbide.

Both markets have been pushed toward higher purity application specific chemistries and nanoparticle sizes. Zirconium dioxide zro 2 sometimes known as zirconia not to be confused with zircon is a white crystalline oxide of zirconium its most naturally occurring form with a monoclinic crystalline structure is the mineral baddeleyite a dopant stabilized cubic structured zirconia cubic zirconia is synthesized in various colours for use as a gemstone and a diamond simulant. Our high quality ceramic powders are utilized in applications such as clean energy technologies technical ceramics thermal management and pyrotechnics. Spark plasma sintering sps is a novel sintering technique for the densification of ceramic matrix composites.

Ceramco can produce oem ceramic parts from virtually any ceramic powder or formulation thereof. Both markets are also limited by the cost of high purity raw materials. The non oxide ceramic silicon carbide sisic or ssic is a ceramic material that is as hard as diamond and features many other important characteristics. Alpha and beta silicon carbide and boron carbide.

Non oxide ceramic armor there is a delicate balance between the various characteristics when choosing the most effective material components in making ceramic armor. We offer one of the most extensive material portfolios in non oxide advanced ceramic powders specializing in boron boride carbide and nitride powders.
