Silicon carbide is expensive because it needs to be produced synthetically through high-temperature processes that are very sophisticated, and the powders have to be extremely pure and fine particle size. Its sintering is around 2000°C, and hence, energy and equipment costs are very high. Machining is difficult due to the hardness, and diamond cutting tools and specialized equipment have to be employed. The overall manufacturing is long with low yields and technical demands. As a high-value material used mainly in aerospace, semiconductors, and other mission-critical environments, its minuscule size and high manufacturing complexity guarantee prices are kept high.
Silicon carbide is extremely hard, ranking about 9–9.5 on the Mohs hardness scale, just below diamond, which is rated 10. While it is not as hard as diamond, it is one of the hardest industrial materials available, offering excellent wear resistance and mechanical strength.
While companies like Saint-Gobain, 3M, and CoorsTek dominate the market, trusted suppliers like Newthink Material have built a strong reputation for offering reliable, high-performance silicon carbide products tailored to diverse industrial needs.
Yes, silicon carbide ceramic is used in bulletproof applications. Its combination of high hardness, light weight, and strong impact resistance makes it an ideal material for manufacturing ballistic armor plates used in military and law enforcement protection.
