제품 개요 및 2025년 시장 관련성
High-thermal-conductivity ceramic substrates based on silicon carbide—reaction-bonded (R-SiC), sintered (SSiC), recrystallized/porous-infiltrated (RBSiC), and silicon-infiltrated silicon carbide (SiSiC)—are foundational to reliable packaging of silicon carbide (SiC) power devices in Pakistan’s textile, cement, 강철, and emerging industrial sectors. These substrate families deliver superior heat spreading, mechanical rigidity, and environmental resilience, enabling higher current density, compact layouts, and long life in high-temperature, high-dust operating environments.
In 2025, as plants in Punjab and Sindh migrate to SiC-based rectifiers, high-frequency conversion modules, and electrified furnace power stages, thermal bottlenecks increasingly constrain performance. Ceramic substrates with thermal conductivity tailored to the application (from robust mechanical grades to premium high-k options), coupled with low thermal resistance stacks, raise rectification efficiency to >98%, shrink cooling systems by 30%–40%, and support device junction temperatures up to 175°C without compromising reliability. These substrates integrate into power modules, rectifier bridges, and multi-pulse assemblies, with material traceability and documentation that align with IEC 62477-1 (safety), IEC 61000 (EMC), and IEC 60747 (semiconductor device data) requirements for acceptance and audits. They are compatible with sintered silver, high-reliability solders, and active brazing for metallization interfaces, and are engineered to withstand vibration, corrosive dust, and thermal cycling prevalent in cement kilns, steel melt shops, and mining operations.
