ʻO nā whiskers silikoni carbide he mau ʻūhā cubic, me ka paʻakikī kiʻekiʻe, ka modulus nui, ka ikaika tensile kiʻekiʻe a me ka wela wela.

ʻOi aku ka ʻoi aku o ka ʻoi aku o ka ʻoi aku o ka paʻakikī a me ka conductivity uila, ka ʻaʻahu, ke kūpaʻa wela kiʻekiʻe, ʻoi aku ka pale ʻana i ke ōlaʻi, ka pale ʻana i ka corrosion, a me ka pale radiation.Hoʻohana nui ʻia lākou ma nā mokulele a me nā pūpū missile, nā mīkini, nā rotors turbine kiʻekiʻe, a me nā mea kūikawā, etc.

ʻOi aku ka maikaʻi o ka hoʻokō ʻana o ka ʻūhā silicon carbide i ka hoʻoikaika ʻana i nā composites ceramic matrix ma mua o ka hoʻokahi mea seramika, a ʻoi aku ka hoʻohana ʻana i ka ʻoihana pale, aerospace, a me nā ʻāpana mechanical precision.Me ka hoʻomau mau ʻana o ka hoʻolālā waiwai a me ka ʻenehana composite, e hoʻomaikaʻi hou ʻia ka hana o ka whisker-reinforced ceramic matrix composites, a ʻoi aku ka nui o nā noi.

Ma ke kahua aerospace, hiki ke hoʻohana ʻia nā mea metala a me ka resin-based whisker composite e like me nā helicopter rotors, nā ʻēheu, nā huelo, nā pūpū ākea, nā mea pae mokulele a me nā mea aerospace ʻē aʻe ma muli o ko lākou kaumaha māmā a me ka ikaika kikoʻī kiʻekiʻe.
