Ferro Silicon is made of coke and silica is used as a raw material and is made of an electric furnace. Since silicon and oxygen are easily mixed into silica, Ferro Silicon is often used as a deoxidizer in steel making. It can also be used as a coating for welding electrodes in the suspension phase and electrode manufacturing in the mineral processing industry.

Application:

1. Used as a deoxidizer and alloying agent in the steel industry 

2. Used as an inoculant and spheroidizer in the cast iron industry

3. Used as a reducing agent in the production of ferroalloys

4. High-temperature smelting of metal magnesium in Pijiang magnesium smelting

5. Used as a suspension phase in the mineral processing industry, used as an electrode coating in the electrode manufacturing industry, and used in the chemical industry to manufacture silicone products.

Since silicon and oxygen are easily synthesized into silica, Ferro Silicon is often used as a deoxidizer in steelmaking, and at the same time, a large amount of heat is released when SiO2 is formed, and it is also advantageous to increase the temperature of the molten steel while deoxidizing. At the same time, Ferro Silicon can also be used as an alloying element additive, widely used in low alloy structural steel, spring steel, bearing steel, heat resistant steel and electrical silicon steel. Ferro Silicon alloy is often used as a reducing agent in iron alloy production and chemical industry.

Ferro Silicon is widely used in the steel industry, foundry industry and other industrial production.

Ferro Silicon is an essential deoxidizer in the steelmaking industry. In torch steel, Ferro Silicon is used for precipitation deoxidation and diffusion deoxidation. Brick iron is also used as an alloying agent in steel making. Adding a certain amount of silicon to the steel can significantly improve the strength, hardness and elasticity of the steel, increase the magnetic permeability of the steel, and reduce the hysteresis loss of the transformer steel.

In addition, Ferro Silicon powder can be used as a suspension phase in the beneficiation industry, and it is used as a coating for welding rods in the electrode manufacturing industry.

In the steelmaking industry, about 3 to 5 kg of 75% Ferro Silicon is consumed for every ton of steel produced.
