Izinto ze-Nano silicon carbide azizona nje i-nano-powder, kodwa futhi ne-silicon carbide nanowires (engaqondwa kalula njenge-nano-scale silicon carbide whiskers).Izakhiwo zemishini ze-silicon carbide nanowires ezifana nokunwebeka, ubulukhuni nokuqina ziphakeme kunalezo ze-silicon carbide block kanye newhisker ye-silicon carbide.

I-silicon carbide enohlangothi olulodwa ithembisa kakhulu njenge-ejenti eqinisayo yezinto zobumba zobumba, insimbi, kanye ne-polymer.

I-Silicon carbide nanomaterials inokusebenza okungcono kunezinto ezijwayelekile ze-silicon carbide futhi ingahlangabezana nezidingo eziqinile zezinkambu zobuchwepheshe obuphezulu.Njengomsebenzi owenziwe nge-nanostructured onezinhlobonhlobo zezinhlelo zokusebenza, kunengqondo ukwenza ucwaningo olujulile nolubanzi.
