Thermally sprayed silicon carbide coating

Silicom carbide puzzle solved
New cost effective thermally sprayed silicon carbide coating is useful for components that requires high wear resistance and low friction.

The properties of SiC makes the coatings highly attractive for many industrial applications as a new and cost-effective competitor to most hard coating materials on the market. The goal is to reduce wear of components and increase lifetime, and thus reduce O&M costs. The process is patented and being commercialized through the new spinout company Seram Coatings AS.
