Silicon Nitride Ceramic is unrivaled when it comes to hardness, bending strength, fracture toughness, wear resistance and corrosion resistance. It is a highly resistant material used in lightweight construction and high-temperature applications. Silicon nitride is ideal for use with components exhibiting high mechanical strength even when exposed to sudden stresses and showing consistent resistance to high operational temperatures, corrosive media and heavy wear. UNIPRETEC is able to efficiently manufacture complex shaped prototypes and large-batch components of silicon nitride which are ideally suited for many challenging applications.
