Hoʻokaʻawale ʻia nā huahana Silicon carbide i nā ʻano like ʻole e like me nā ʻano noiʻi like ʻole. Hoʻohana maʻamau ia me ka mechanically. No ka laʻana, ʻo ka silicon carbide kahi mea kūpono no ka silicon carbide mechanical seal ma muli o kona kūpaʻa kino kino maikaʻi, ikaika kiʻekiʻe, paʻakikī kiʻekiʻe, kūpaʻa ʻaʻahu maikaʻi, liʻiliʻi friction coefficient a me ke kiʻekiʻe o ka wela.
ʻO ka Silicon carbide (SIC) ka mea i ʻike ʻia he carborundum, i hana ʻia me ke one quartz, petroleum coke (a i ʻole coal coke), nā pahu lāʻau (pono e hoʻohui ʻia i ka wā e hana ana i ka carbide silicon green) a pēlā aku. ʻO ka silikoni carbide kekahi mineral kakaikahi ma ke ʻano, mulberry. I ka contemporary C, N, B a me nā mea ʻenehana non-oxide kiʻekiʻe refractory maka, silicon carbide kekahi o nā mea i hoʻohana nui ʻia a waiwai, hiki ke kapa ʻia ke one kila gula a i ʻole ke one refractory. I kēia manawa, hoʻokaʻawale ʻia ka hana ʻenehana o Kina i ka carbide silicon carbide ʻeleʻele a me ka carbide silika ʻōmaʻomaʻo, ʻelua mau mea hexagonal crystals me ka hapa o 3.20 ~ 3.25 a me ka microhardness o 2840 ~ 3320kg/mm2.
