The Application of Silicon Powder

 

Silicon is a chemical element with the symbol Si and atomic number 14. It is from the same group with carbon, germanium and tin. They all have similar properties, and are all tetravalent metalloid and semiconductor.

Silicon powder is made from silicon lump by breaking & milling. Depending on the purity & particle size of the silicon powder, it can be used for many purposes.

Semiconductor manufacturing

Due to the high melting point, thermal stability, rich resources and higher purity of silicon powder, silicon integrated circuits and large-scale integrated circuits have been applied to various areas. Silicon powder is an important raw materials of electronics and semiconductor industry

Coating Industry

-High purity Silicon Powder with suitable grain sizes for use in preparation of pressed and bonded sputtering targets and in CVD, PVD processes including Thermal and Electron Beam (E-Beam) Evaporation, Low Temperature Organic Evaporation, ALD, MOCVD.                                                           

-Silicon powder with narrow particle size distribution is used for thermal spaying, this makes the coating dense and uniform.

Silicone industry

Silicon powder is the basic raw material of synthetic materials. It is used in the production of silicone rubber, silicone resin, silicone oil, etc. The materials are high temperature tolerant, electrical insulation, corrosion-resistant, waterproof etc.

Refractory industry

Silicon powder is an antioxidant additive in iron groove and iron ditch of Iron smelting, mud water cannon, and containing silicon carbide mixes to raise the temperature, resistant to wear and oxidation resistance.

Metallurgical and foundry industry

Silicon powder is used as non-iron-based additives, silicon steel alloy agent to enhance the harden ability of steel. Silicon powder can also be applied to certain metal reducing agent, such as a new type of ceramic alloy.

Edgetech Industries specializes in producing high purity silicon powder with customized particle size. Our standard silicon powder particle sizes: - 325 mesh, -200mes, - 100 mesh, or any size between 20-500mesh. Nanoparticles & Submicron particles are also available on request. One of our most remarkable technologies is to provide silicon powder with a narrow particle size distribution. We will talk about the manufacturing process of silicon powder, which explain the reason we can provide narrow PSD for Si powder.

Alloying of molybdenum

图片
  The alloying principle of molybdenum is similar to that of tungsten. All the strengthening methods used to improve the heat resistance of tungsten are basically applicable to molybdenum. There are mainly the following types: solid solution strengthening, precipitation strengthening, dispersion strengthening and composite strengthening. Solution strengthening Solid solution strengthening includes the addition of trace elements and high content elements. The trace element solid solution strengthening method mainly refers to adding a trace amount of Ti, Zr, Fe, Mn, La, B and other alloy elements for solid solution strengthening to improve the performance of molybdenum. When trace elements are added, a certain amount of carbon is often added to the alloy. It is the alloy elements and carbon that form carbide dispersed particles to strengthen the strengthening effect. High content element solid solution strengthening The elements that improve the binding force between atoms...

Knowledge about TZM Alloy

  TZM material is an alloy of 0.50% Titanium, 0.08% Zirconium and 0.02% Carbon with the balance Molybdenum and is typically manufactured by powder metallurgy or arc-casting processes. It has a higher recrystallization temperature, higher creep strength & hardness, and higher tensile strength than pure molybdenum. In addition, TZM exhibits good thermal conductivity, low vapor pressure, good corrosion resistance and is machinable.   TZM Molybdenum Physical Properties: Density: 10.22g/cc, 0.37lb/in3 Melting Point: 2623°C, 4753°F Thermal Conductivity: 0.48 Cal/cm2/cm°C/sec Specific Heat: 0.073 Cal/gm/°C Coefficient of Linear Thermal Expansion: 2.50 micro-in/°F x 10-6 Electrical Resistivity: 6.85 micro-ohm-cm   The molybdenum TZM is a normally utilized constructional material for high-temperature applications. These microstructural aspects significantly affect quality at raised temperatures. By methods for carbide-reinforcing TZM features impro...

Tungsten tube-High density & melting point metal tube

图片
  Tungsten tubes are drilled from tungsten bars / rods, W tube with massive OD are going to be mold directly.   Tungsten – periodic symbol W - lays claim to the very best freezing point of all components. This characteristic combined with a superb ability to resist thermal shock enhances its ability to perform well as a conductor. Rocket cones, that should stand up to fast temperature changes and recurrent on and off cycles, area unit typically manufactured from tungsten. Tungsten's density conjointly permits it to expeditiously block radiation from sure areas whereas directional it to others. It will direct and form a beam of radiation, permitting doctors additional exactitude and management whereas treating cancerous tissue. With the employment of tungsten devices and shields, doctors area unit ready to target cancerous areas, whereas at the same time shielding healthy tissue from the harmful effects of radiation. Application The quartz production method uses c...
