uses of Ferrosilicon Powder

Ferrosilicon powder is an iron alloy composed of iron and silicon, which is then ground into a powdery substance and used as a deoxidizer for steel making and iron making. Ferrosilicon powders are used as deoxidizers and alloying agents in the steel industry. Ferrosilicon powder is an iron alloy composed of iron and silicon, which is then ground into a powdery substance and used as a deoxidizer for steel making and iron making.

    Six uses of ferrosilicon powder:

    1. Adding a certain amount of silicon to the steel can significantly improve the strength, hardness and elasticity of the steel. Therefore, when smelting structural steel, tool steel, spring steel, and silicon steel for transformers, ferrosilicon is also used as an alloying agent. . Used as an inoculant and spheroidizing agent in the cast iron industry.

    2. Adding a certain amount of ferrosilicon to cast iron can prevent the formation of carbides in iron and promote the precipitation and spheroidization of graphite. Therefore, in the production of ductile iron, ferrosilicon is an important inoculant (helping to precipitate graphite) and ball. Chemical agent.

    3. Used as a reducing agent in the production of ferroalloys. Not only is the chemical affinity between silicon and oxygen high, but the high silicon ferrosilicon has a very low carbon content. Therefore, high silicon ferrosilicon (or siliceous alloy) is a commonly used reducing agent in the production of low carbon iron alloys in the iron alloy industry.

    4. Not only is the chemical affinity between silicon and oxygen high, but the high silicon ferrosilicon has a very low carbon content. Therefore, high silicon ferrosilicon (or siliceous alloy) is a commonly used reducing agent in the production of low carbon iron alloys in the iron alloy industry.

    5. Use in other areas. The finely or atomized treated ferrosilicon powder can be used as a suspension phase in the beneficiation industry.

　6. Can be used as a coating for welding rods in the electrode manufacturing industry. High silicon ferrosilicon can be used in the chemical industry to make products such as silicone.
