Semicorex provides wafer boats, pedestals, and custom wafer carriers for both vertical / column and horizontal configurations. We have been manufacturer and supplier of silicon carbide coating film for many years. Our silicon carbide ceramic wafer boat has a good price advantage and cover most of the European and American markets. We look forward to becoming your long-term partner in China.
Semicorex silicon carbide ceramic wafer boat, the ultimate solution for wafer handling and protection in semiconductor manufacturing.
Our silicon carbide ceramic wafer boat is made from high-quality material coated with a layer of silicon carbide (SiC) used CVD method, which have good resistance to corrosion and excellent resistance to high temperatures and thermal shock. Advanced ceramics deliver excellent thermal resistance and plasma durability while mitigating particles and contaminants for high-capacity wafer carriers.

The difference between SSiC and RBSiC:
1. Sintering process is different. RBSiC is to infiltrate free Si into silicon carbide at a low temperature, SSiC is formed by natural shrinkage at 2100 degrees.
2. SSiC have smoother surface, higher density and higher strength, for some sealings with more strict surface requirements, SSiC will be better.
3. Different used time under different PH and temperature, SSiC is longer than RBSiC
