SiC vs WC seal faces differences? 1

[Arshad Ahamed]

Greetings All,

Can you help me summarize/tabulate the differences between SiC and WC w.r.to the below points
1. Thermal Conductivity
2. Thermal Expansion
3. Co-efficient of Friction
4. Hardness
5. Cost?

It would be highly appreciated if you could list the differences by quoting values so that the audience (this is for a presentation work, I have tried researching online but the data available is confusing, plus I have to work on other aspects of the ppt) can relate to the superiority of SiC over WC as seal material.

Thank you!

Be curious, and furious in your pursuit for answers

would you like us to prepare the overheads and write the script for you while we are at it?

It is a capital mistake to theorise before one has data. Insensibly one begins to twist facts to suit theories, instead of theories to suit facts. (Sherlock Holmes - A Scandal in Bohemia.)

Your material or seal supplier should be more than capable, and more qualified, to get you this information.
