Emery, also known as silicon carbide (SiC), is made by high-temperature smelting of raw materials such as quartz sand, petroleum coke (or coal coke), and wood chips (salt is needed to produce green silicon carbide) through a resistance furnace. Silicon carbide also exists in nature, a rare mineral, moissanite. Silicon carbide is also called moissanite.
