Excellent Quality Ferro Silicon FeSi 75/65/45 For Casting Additives
Ferrosilicon is an alloy composed primarily of iron (Fe) and silicon (Si). It is produced by melting a mixture of iron ore, silicon dioxide, and coke or charcoal in an electric arc furnace. The resulting alloy is commonly used as a deoxidizer and an alloying agent in the production of steel, as well as in other industrial applications.
The silicon content in ferrosilicon can range from about 15% to 90%, depending on the specific application. The higher the silicon content, the greater the deoxidizing capacity of the alloy. Additionally, the alloy can contain small amounts of other elements such as calcium, aluminum, and manganese, which can further modify its properties.
Function
Deoxidizer: Ferrosilicon is commonly used as a deoxidizing agent in the production of steel and cast iron. It reacts with oxygen and other impurities present in the molten metal, reducing them and preventing the formation of defects in the final product.
