MERSEN Boostec: SiC Material Obtained by Pressureless Sintering*
MERSEN Boostec SiC is a polycrystalline technical ceramic obtained bypressureless sintering resulting in a silicon carbide completely free ofnon-combined silicon. This paper gives a short description of the MERSENBoostec company. Four of its main current commercial activities concerninglaser processes, semiconductor and optomechanics OEMs as well ascontinuous flow reactors for the chemical industry are overviewed.
