• Particle Size Distribution: Customizable from sub-micron (0.1–2 µm) to coarse (up to ~100 µm)
• Surface area: 5–8 m²/g 
• Thermal Conductivity ≥30 W/m·K
• Residual Impurities (Al, Fe, Ca) Typically <0.5%
• Available in multiple granularities or milled formats 
• Custom batch specs available upon request 
• Packaging OptionsStandard 25 kg sealed drums; custom options available

All product batches are validated through XRD, particle size distribution, and impurity profile analysis. 

Refacture’s tailored 3C-SiC products serve a variety of demanding industries, each benefiting from our precise particle engineering and high-purity standards:

• Semiconductors & Electronics:
  Ideal for wafer substrates, power electronic components, and optoelectronics due to purity and controlled particle distributions.

• Advanced Technical Ceramics:
  Exceptional hardness and wear-resistance for ceramic bearings, cutting tools, armor, and industrial coatings.

• Thermal Management Solutions:
  Excellent thermal conductivity and stability for thermal barrier coatings, heat exchangers, aerospace, and defense components.

• Battery & Energy Storage:
  Optimized SiC for robust battery-grade composites and next-generation energy storage applications.

PLASMA MANUFACTURED FOR SUPERIOR PERFORMANCE

Our advanced plasma rotary furnace technology delivers significant benefits over conventional SiC manufacturing processes (e.g., Acheson process):

• Unmatched Consistency:
  Achieve consistent purity and controlled microstructures not possible through traditional processes.

• Energy Efficient & Environmentally Friendly:
  Reduced energy usage through heat recovery and innovative carbon sources (e.g., renewable spent pot lining from aluminum smelters), minimizing environmental impact.

• Reduced Milling Requirements:
  Directly produce specific particle sizes, significantly lowering or eliminating energy-intensive milling steps, unlike traditional processes.
