Zinthu zopangidwa ndi silicon carbide zimagawidwa m'mitundu yosiyanasiyana malinga ndi malo osiyanasiyana ogwiritsira ntchito. Nthawi zambiri zimagwiritsidwa ntchito kwambiri pamakina. Mwachitsanzo, silicon carbide ndi chinthu choyenera kwambiri chosindikizira makina a silicon carbide chifukwa cha kukana dzimbiri kwa mankhwala, mphamvu yake yayikulu, kuuma kwake kwakukulu, kukana kuvala bwino, kukana pang'ono kwa kukangana komanso kukana kutentha kwambiri.
Silicon carbide (SIC) imadziwikanso kuti carborundum, yomwe imapangidwa ndi mchenga wa quartz, petroleum coke (kapena coke ya malasha), matabwa (omwe amafunika kuwonjezedwa popanga silicon carbide yobiriwira) ndi zina zotero. Silicon carbide ilinso ndi mchere wosowa, mulberry. Mu C, N, B ndi zipangizo zina zamakono zosakhala ndi oxide high technology refractory, silicon carbide ndi imodzi mwa zipangizo zomwe zimagwiritsidwa ntchito kwambiri komanso zotsika mtengo, zomwe zingatchedwe mchenga wagolide kapena mchenga wotsutsa. Pakadali pano, kupanga silicon carbide m'mafakitale ku China kumagawidwa m'magulu a silicon carbide yakuda ndi silicon carbide yobiriwira, zonse ziwiri ndi makristalo a hexagonal okhala ndi gawo la 3.20 ~ 3.25 ndi microhardness ya 2840 ~ 3320kg/mm2.
