The Introduction Of Ferro Silicon

Ferro silicon is an iron alloy composed of iron and silicon. Ferro silicon is an iron-silicon alloy made by smelting in an electric furnace using coke, steel scraps, and quartz (or silica) as raw materials. Since silicon and oxygen can easily combine to form silicon dioxide, ferro silicon is often used as a deoxidizer in steelmaking. At the same time, since a large amount of heat is released when SiO2 is generated, it is also beneficial to increase the temperature of molten steel while deoxidizing. At the same time, ferro silicon can also be used as an alloying element additive and is widely used in low-alloy structural steel, spring steel, bearing steel, heat-resistant steel and electrical silicon steel. Ferro silicon is often used as a reducing agent in ferroalloy production and the chemical industry.
