What are ferrosilicon particles
Aug 05, 2024
Ferrosilicon particles are formed by breaking ferrosilicon into a certain proportion of small pieces and filtering them through a certain mesh size sieve. In simple terms, ferrosilicon particles are small particles that are crushed and screened from natural ferrosilicon blocks and standard blocks according to various particle sizes. Currently, they are mostly used as inoculants in foundries on the market.
Ferrosilicon particles are available in particle sizes of 1-3mm, 3-8mm, or customized according to customer requirements.
Advantages of ferrosilicon particles:
Ferrosilicon particles can be used not only in the steelmaking industry, but also as a commonly used metallurgical material in the cast iron industry. This is mainly because ferrosilicon particles can be used by cast iron manufacturers to replace inoculants and spheroidizers. In the cast iron industry, the price of ferrosilicon particles is much lower than that of steel, and it is easier to melt. It is an iron alloy product with casting ability.
