Product Introduction of Silicon Nitride Ceramic Sheets

Silicon nitride ceramic sheets (Si₃N₄) are high-performance ceramic materials bonded by strong covalent bonds. Their microstructure consists of interwoven, elongated β-Si₃N₄ grains, forming a unique "fish-scale-like" structure. This material exists in two crystalline forms: α-Si₃N₄ and β-Si₃N₄. The α-phase is primarily used in corrosion-resistant seals, while the β-phase is used in the manufacture of high-temperature bearings and cutting tools.


Main Characteristics

1. Physical Properties:

Mechanical Properties: Bending strength reaches 780-980 MPa, fracture toughness is 6.5-8.5 MPa·m¹/², more than twice that of alumina and aluminum nitride.

Hardness: Vickers hardness is 15-22 GPa (close to cubic boron nitride).

Wear Resistance: Surface friction coefficient is as low as 0.4-0.6, capable of resisting high-frequency friction and wear.

2. Thermal Properties:

Thermal Conductivity: 80-120 W/(m·K), five times that of alumina.

Coefficient of Thermal Expansion: 3.0×10⁻⁶/℃, perfectly matched with silicon chip materials.

Thermal Shock Resistance: Strength retention rate >90% during severe temperature cycling from -50°C to 1000°C.

3. Chemical Properties:

Corrosion Resistance: Almost no reaction with molten metals (aluminum, copper) and acid and alkali solutions (except HF) below 1200°C.

Insulation: Volume resistivity >10¹⁴ Ω·cm, breakdown field strength >15 kV/mm.
