Silicon carbide formation from methane and silicon monoxide

Abstract Silicon carbide (SiC) formation plays an important role during the production of elemental silicon. SiC forms through a high temperature reaction between silicon monoxide gas (SiO) and carbon. Currently, the carbon sources are solids, however finding a way of substituting the solid carbon w...
