1. High hardness and wear resistance
The hardness of green silicon carbide is second only to diamond, with a Mohs hardness of up to 9.4, which allows it to quickly and effectively remove flaws and scratches during stone surface polishing.
2. Excellent thermal conductivity
Green silicon carbide has excellent thermal conductivity and can effectively conduct away the heat generated during polishing. This feature is particularly important in stone polishing, because stone is prone to deformation or cracking when heated.
3. Excellent chemical resistance
Green silicon carbide has excellent chemical resistance and can resist the erosion of various corrosive media, ensuring the stability and integrity of the material in a complex chemical environment.
4. Uniform particle size distribution and self-sharpening
The particle size distribution of green silicon carbide abrasive is concentrated and uniform, and the abrasive grains are equal in shape and have sharp edges.
5. Wide applicability
Green silicon carbide is not only suitable for stone polishing, but also widely used in grinding and polishing of various materials such as ceramics and metals. Its excellent performance and wide applicability make green silicon carbide an important material in the field of stone polishing.
6. Improve the quality and value of stone
The surface of the stone polished with green silicon carbide is smoother, more delicate, and presents a brighter luster.
