The synthesis methods, consisting of carbothermal reduction, chemical vapor deposition, laser ablation, sol-gel and microwave heating are described. The silicon carbide properties and application are also explained. The paper then discusses the limitations of previous studies which involved complicated equipment and processes, that limit their further application and act as a barrier to further research and development in many fields. © The authors, published by EDP Sciences, 2017. publisher: EDP Sciences date: 2017 type: Conference or Workshop Item type: PeerReviewed identifier: Mohd Sohor, M.A.H. and Mustapha, M. and Chandra Kurnia, J.
