AlSiC (Aluminum Silicon Carbide) is a compound material which combines silicon carbide elements in an aluminum alloy matrix.
AlSiC has high thermal conductivity, lightweight, and controlled thermal expansion. It offers superior thermal management for high technology electronic applications in a cost-effective, lightweight materials. AlSiC is widely used in microelectronics as a substrate for high-density multi-chip modules and power semiconductor devices, where it helps eliminate waste heat.
The low material density of AlSiC makes it preferred choice for weight-sensitive applications such as space-borne, portable devices, and airborne. AlSiC is widely used owing to its superior properties such as environmental resistance, lightweight, superior mechanical properties, low thermal expansion, excellent mechanical damping, and high thermal conductivity.
Moreover, its cost is comparatively lower than other metal products, and thus it is used in various industries such as aerospace, electrical & electronics, and automotive & transportation.
The supreme AlSiC material properties along with concurrent integration and net-shape fabrication possess cost-effective manufacturing and it offers high-performance thermal management, resulting in functional packaging designs. Net-shape is the ability to fabricate materials and package geometry without finish machining and concurrent integration that excludes the requirement for subsequent soldering and brazing, which decreases the total packaging cost.
Increasing demand for microelectronics and electronic packaging material and system for thermal management, functionality, and weight requirements is resulting in cost-effective solutions for processing technologies to provide high-performance packaging.
Rising demand for AlSiC in aerospace application due to the increasing demand for airplanes and passenger traffic is driving the global market. AlSiC is used for producing aerospace parts such as airplane wings, as the material has outstanding property and is lighter in weight than aluminum alloy. Thus, aluminum alloy is replaced with AlSiC. In the defense and military sector, AlSiC properties such as lightweight, superior mechanical capabilities, low thermal expansion, and environmental resistance make it a preferred material for manufacturing defense and military vehicles, armor, and aircraft body.
This, in turn, is driving the market. Furthermore, AlSiC has high thermal conductivity; therefore, its demand is high from the electronics industry, thus propelling the growth of the market.
AlSiC has lower density than traditional metal components, which makes it a suitable material for convenient electronics such as space-based applications and laptops. Additionally, its thermal properties increase its usage for optoelectronic and electronic application packaging. AlSiC packaging is produced at a lower price than the traditional packaging material, and thus the former is expected to replace the latter, thereby creating lucrative opportunities in the aluminum silicon carbide (AlSiC) market.
High processing costs of the methods (excluding casting), technological difficulties regarding the machining of composites after preparation, and availability of low-cost reinforcement are expected to restraint the global aluminum silicon carbide (AlSiC) market.
