Silicon-Impregnated Silicon Carbide (SiC) Paddle and Wafer Carrier is a high-performance composite material formed by infiltrating silicon into a recrystallized silicon carbide matrix and undergoing special treatment. This material combines the high strength and high temperature tolerance of recrystallized silicon carbide with the enhanced performance of silicon infiltration, and exhibits excellent performance under extreme conditions. It is widely used in the field of semiconductor heat treatment, especially in environments requiring high temperature, high pressure and high wear resistance, and is an ideal material for manufacturing heat treatment parts in the semiconductor production process.
The Silicon-Impregnated Silicon Carbide (SiC) Paddle and Wafer Carrier is engineered to meet the demanding requirements of semiconductor thermal processing applications. Crafted from high-purity SiC and enhanced through silicon impregnation, this product offers a unique combination of high-temperature performance, excellent thermal conductivity, corrosion resistance, and outstanding mechanical strength.
By integrating advanced material science with precision manufacturing, this solution ensures superior performance, reliability, and durability for semiconductor manufacturers.
1. Exceptional High-Temperature Resistance
With a melting point exceeding 2700°C, SiC materials are inherently stable under extreme heat. Silicon impregnation further enhances their thermal stability, allowing them to withstand prolonged exposure to high temperatures without structural weakening or performance degradation.
The exceptional thermal conductivity of silicon-impregnated SiC ensures uniform heat distribution, reducing thermal stress during critical processing stages. This property prolongs equipment lifespan and minimizes production downtime, making it ideal for high-temperature thermal processing.
A robust silicon oxide layer forms naturally on the surface, providing outstanding resistance to oxidation and corrosion. This ensures long-term reliability in harsh operating environments, protecting both the material and surrounding components.
Silicon-impregnated SiC features excellent compressive strength and wear resistance, maintaining its structural integrity under high-load, high-temperature conditions. This reduces the risk of wear-related damage, ensuring consistent performance over extended usage cycles.
