S14700 - Silicon IV nitride Powder

Silicon nitride bearings are both full ceramic bearings and ceramic hybrid bearings with balls in ceramics and races in steel. Silicon nitride ceramics have good shock resistance compared to other ceramics. Silicon nitride is used for rocker arm pads for lower wear, turbocharger for lower inertia and less engine lag, and in exhaust gas control valves for increased acceleration.

Silicon nitride is a compound of silicon and nitrogen. It is used in the preparation of high purity silicon, as well as in the production of semiconductors, electronic devices, and other products. Silicon nitride is also used to make parts for aircraft engines and turbines. The thermal expansion coefficient of silicon nitride is typically 5x10-6/°C, which makes it ideal for use in high-temperature environments. Silicon nitride has antimicrobial properties that may be due to its ability to release hydrogen fluoride and water vapor when heated. These compounds are toxic to bacteria and fungi, making silicon nitride a potential candidate for use in biomedical implants or medical devices such as catheters or prosthetic joints. Silicon nitride is chemically stable at temperatures up to 1000°C, making it an excellent material for high-temperature applications such as aerospace engine components. Silicon nitride can also be used as a sample preparation tool because it can remove impurities from samples without

Silicon nitride, 0.2-2.5 microns (99.99%-Si) PURATREM

Silicon(IV) nitride is used in the automobile industry as a material for engine parts such as diesel engines and glowplugs. It is used for rocker arm pads for lower wear in spark-ignition engines. Ceramics made from this show good shock resistance. Similarly bearings made from this find application in the main engines of NASA’s space shuttle. It acts as an insulator and in the manufacture of integrated circuits. This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio.
