We manufacture Ferro silicon
Ferro Silicon can broadly be defined as an alloy of Iron and Silicon. It is a ferroalloy with a silicon % between 15-90 % by weight. Its melting point is about 1200 °C to 1250 °C with a boiling point of 2355 °C. The density of ferrosilicon decreases with increasing silicon content.
Ferrosilicon is used as a source of silicon in foundries and steelmaking. It is of great importance in the production of other ferrous alloys, carbon steels, and stainless steels, among other things. Ferrosilicon has excellent deoxidizing properties; it is these properties that help produce the above materials. Loss of carbon from the molten steel is thus prevented through the use of its deoxidizing properties. Ferro silicon is said to be an excellent heat blocker. Ferro silicon is also used to produce other Ferro alloys.
In manufacture of cast iron, ferrosilicon is used for inoculation of the iron to accelerate graphitization. Ferrosilicon can also be found in some electrode coatings used in arc welding. Silicon steel for transformer cores and electro-motors, silicon, as well as high-temperature-resistant and corrosion-resistant ferrous silicon alloys all makes great use of ferrosilicon.
Ferro silicon can be used to make other ferroalloys too. Ferrosilicon is also a basis for manufacture of pre-alloys like magnesium ferrosilicon (FeSiMg). It is also an important additive to cast iron for controlling the initial content of silicon. Ferrosilicon is also used in the Pidgeon process to make magnesium from dolomite.
