Chemical property of high carbon silicon
Oct 24, 2024
1. Oxidation resistance and corrosion resistance
High carbon silicon has good oxidation resistance and corrosion resistance, can maintain stability at high temperatures, and has a low coefficient of expansion and good thermal stability. These characteristics enable the high carbon silicon to work and exist stably in various media.
2. Deoxidation property
High carbon silicon contains silicon element, in the process of steelmaking, silicon element and oxygen affinity reaction, so that the oxygen in the molten steel deoxygenation, improve the hardness and quality of steel. In addition, the silicon element in the high carbon silicon has a good affinity with oxygen, so the molten steel also has the characteristics of no splash.
3. Slag collecting property
High carbon silicon also has the advantage of slag collection, a certain proportion of high carbon silicon into the molten steel, can make the oxide in the process of steelmaking quickly clump, easy to filter treatment, make the molten steel more pure, greatly improve the density and hardness of steel.
