The result is one of the hardest materials known to exist \u2014 Mohs 9 to 9.5, surpassed only by diamond and boron carbide. In blasting applications, silicon carbide&#8217;s extreme hardness translates directly to the fastest material removal rate of any common abrasive, making it the specialist tool for substrates that aluminum oxide simply cannot process effectively.<\/p>\n<p>Silicon carbide is not a general-purpose blasting abrasive. Its cost \u2014 typically 2\u20133\u00d7 higher than aluminum oxide per unit weight \u2014 and its tendency to wear equipment aggressively at high operating pressures make it appropriate only where its extreme hardness is the decisive advantage. Those applications include blasting cemented tungsten carbide, silicon nitride ceramics, sapphire optical elements, hardened tool steel, and intricate glass engraving where the cutting speed and edge definition of SiC are unmatched.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n\n<section id=\"hlh-cl-specs\">\n<h2 class=\"hlh-cl-h2\">Technical Specifications<\/h2>\n<div class=\"hlh-cl-stats\">\n  <div class=\"hlh-cl-stat\"><div class=\"hlh-cl-stat-val\">9.5<\/div><div class=\"hlh-cl-stat-label\">\u0422\u0432\u0435\u0440\u0434\u043e\u0441\u0442\u044c \u043f\u043e \u041c\u043e\u043e\u0441\u0443<\/div><\/div>\n  <div class=\"hlh-cl-stat\"><div class=\"hlh-cl-stat-val\">3.21<\/div><div class=\"hlh-cl-stat-label\">Specific Gravity (g\/cm\u00b3)<\/div><\/div>\n  <div class=\"hlh-cl-stat\"><div class=\"hlh-cl-stat-val\">2,700\u00b0C<\/div><div class=\"hlh-cl-stat-label\">\u0422\u0435\u043c\u043f\u0435\u0440\u0430\u0442\u0443\u0440\u0430 \u043f\u043b\u0430\u0432\u043b\u0435\u043d\u0438\u044f<\/div><\/div>\n  <div class=\"hlh-cl-stat\"><div class=\"hlh-cl-stat-val\">4.5 mil<\/div><div class=\"hlh-cl-stat-label\">Max Profile Depth<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"hlh-cl-table-wrap\"><table class=\"hlh-cl-table\">\n<thead><tr><th>Property<\/th><th>Black SiC<\/th><th>Green SiC<\/th><\/tr><\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr><td>SiC Content<\/td><td>97\u201398.5%<\/td><td>99%+<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td>\u0422\u0432\u0435\u0440\u0434\u043e\u0441\u0442\u044c \u043f\u043e \u041c\u043e\u043e\u0441\u0443<\/td><td>9.0\u20139.2<\/td><td>9.4\u20139.5<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td>\u0423\u0434\u0435\u043b\u044c\u043d\u0430\u044f \u043f\u043b\u043e\u0442\u043d\u043e\u0441\u0442\u044c<\/td><td>3.19\u20133.22 g\/cm\u00b3<\/td><td>3.20\u20133.23 g\/cm\u00b3<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td>Shape<\/td><td>Angular, sharp-edged<\/td><td>Angular, very sharp<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td>\u0426\u0432\u0435\u0442<\/td><td>Black\/grey-black<\/td><td>Green<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td>Free Silica<\/td><td>&lt;0.5%<\/td><td>&lt;0.3%<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td>\u0412\u043e\u0437\u043c\u043e\u0436\u043d\u043e\u0441\u0442\u044c \u0432\u0442\u043e\u0440\u0438\u0447\u043d\u043e\u0439 \u043f\u0435\u0440\u0435\u0440\u0430\u0431\u043e\u0442\u043a\u0438<\/td><td>10\u201315 cycles<\/td><td>12\u201318 cycles<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td>Relative Cost<\/td><td><span class=\"hlh-cl-badge hlh-cl-badge-lo\">\u0412\u044b\u0441\u043e\u043a\u0438\u0439<\/span><\/td><td><span class=\"hlh-cl-badge hlh-cl-badge-lo\">Very High<\/span><\/td><\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table><\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n<section id=\"hlh-cl-grades\">\n<h2 class=\"hlh-cl-h2\">Black vs Green Silicon Carbide<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Black Silicon Carbide (Black SiC)<\/strong> is the standard commercial grade, with SiC content of 97\u201398.5%. It is harder than aluminum oxide and garnet, and offers a significant cutting speed advantage on difficult substrates. Black SiC is the appropriate choice for most industrial blasting applications requiring SiC, including surface preparation of hard ceramics, deburring of sintered parts, and glass etching.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Green Silicon Carbide (Green SiC)<\/strong> achieves 99%+ purity through a more energy-intensive production process and has slightly higher hardness and a sharper fracture pattern. It is specified for the most demanding applications: lapping and polishing of optical elements, precision grinding of semiconductor wafers, and applications where the lowest possible contaminant introduction is essential. Green SiC&#8217;s cost premium over black SiC is only justified in these specialist applications.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n\n<section id=\"hlh-cl-apps\">\n<h2 class=\"hlh-cl-h2\">Specialist Applications of Silicon Carbide Blasting<\/h2>\n<div class=\"hlh-cl-app-grid\">\n  <div class=\"hlh-cl-app-card\"><h4>Technical Ceramics &amp; Carbide Components<\/h4><p>Cemented tungsten carbide (WC-Co), silicon nitride, aluminium oxide ceramics, and zirconia components can only be effectively blasted with SiC \u2014 aluminum oxide is too soft to profile these materials at practical speeds.
