Si3N4 Ceramics | Silicon Nitride Machining

Ortech – One of  the Largest Technical Ceramics Manufacturer with State-of-the-art processes, precise material controls, and our dedication to operational excellence provide you with the best selection of advanced technical ceramics. When your application demands high strength and toughness, Ortech offers a variety of Sintered Silicon Nitride Ceramics and Hot Pressed Silicon Nitride Ceramics materials. These toughened materials not only provide superior mechanical properties, but also offer Good thermal shock resistance, wear, and corrosion resistance. Silicon nitride Si3N4 ceramics is superior to other materials due to its thermal shock resistance.  It does not deteriorate at high temperatures, so it’s used for automotive engines and parts for gas turbines, including the turbocharger rotor

Sintered Silicon Nitride Si3N4 Ceramics

SSN is a high purity grade of silicon nitride having a density of approximately 70-80% of theoretical that can be produced in a cost effective manner such as dry pressing, and isostatic pressing, to complex net shapes.  SSN has excellent thermal shock resistance and outstanding compatibility with non-ferrous molten metals.  This lower cost alternative to the fully dense silicon nitride grades can be manufactured to close tolerance without the need for expensive diamond grinding
