Si (Silicon) Compounds

Providing Products Such as Silicon Carbide, Silica Fume, and Garnet Sand

Silicon compounds are ceramics with electrical insulation, heat resistance, oxidation resistance, chemical resistance, abrasion resistance, arc resistance, and high thermal conductivity. We provide silicon carbide and silica fume for use as raw materials for industrial ceramics and refractory materials, quartz for use as a filler material, and white carbon (precipitated silica) from India as reinforcement material for rubber used in eco-friendly tires, and others.
