silicon briquette 60

Silicon briquette 60 refers to the silicon briquette with 60% of silicon purity. The silicon content in the silicon ball can be customized according to the requirements of the user (usually a steel mill or a foundry). There are a variety of silicon-containing materials that can be used as raw materials for its production. One is ferrosilicon alloy. Ferrosilicon is a deoxidizer and inoculant widely used in steelmaking and foundry fields. But the disadvantage is that the iron content is high, which will reduce the temperature of the molten iron, and the price is also high. The other is high carbon silicon, which contains higher silicon and higher carbon. Generally, the carbon content is above 15%. The disadvantage is that the output is small. There is also metal silicon powder, including Metallurgical grade silicon powder, silicon slag powder and silicon wafer waste. They can be used alone or combined to make silicon briquette with different grade and chemical compositioins.



Si briquette 60 is a very common model of silicon briquette. It can also be said to be a widely used model. Silicon briquette can not only improve the performance and quality of steel, but also improve production efficiency. Because the price of silicon briquette is very low, it can also reduce costs and provide steel mills with higher economic benefits.Silicon ball is a metallurgical material that needs to be added during steel-making. By adding an appropriate amount of silicon ball, the content of non-metallic inclusions in the steel is reduced, the distribution is more reasonable, and the shape is improved, so as to ensure that the performance of the steel can meet the standards. A fine-grained structure is obtained.

In addition, in the steelmaking industry, silicon balls melting at high temperatures may release a lot of heat. Because of this feature of silicon briquette 60, it is often used as a heating agent to significantly increase the strength, hardness and elasticity of the steel ingot while deoxidizing. , Increase the magnetic permeability of steel and reduce the hysteresis loss of transformer steel. In addition, when Silicon briquette is added to cast iron, it can be used as an inoculant for nodular cast iron, and can prevent the formation of silicon carbide, promote precipitation and spheroidization of graphite, and improve the properties of cast iron.
