silicon nitride structural ceramics/INNOVACERA

Silicon nitrides (Si3N4) feature an excellent combination of material properties. They are nearly as light as silicon carbide (SiC), but their microstructure gives them excellent thermal shock resistance and their high fracture toughness makes them resistant to impacts and shocks.

1) High wear resistance
2) High corrosion resistance
3) High temperature resistance
4) Dimensional stability and aging resistance
5) Excellent sliding properties (tribology)
