Carborundum is the name for silicon carbide (SiC), a compound made of silicon and carbon. It’s renowned for its extreme hardness, high thermal conductivity, and chemical stability.
Carborundum was discovered in 1891 by Edward G. Acheson, who was trying to create artificial diamonds. He named the compound “Carborundum” by blending “carbon” and “corundum” (a naturally hard mineral).
