The Overview Of High Carbon Silicon

High Carbon Silicon , another name is HC Silicon . It is the by-product of Silicon metal, and main element are Si and C , balance are S , P, SiO2. The main markets for high carbon silicon are steelmaking, foundry and aluminium industries.

In recent years, the demand for high carbon silicon has been rising year on year, and due to the rising cost of steelmaking and other industries, high carbon silicon is favoured by many metallurgical manufacturers because of its lower price than ferrosilicon and silicon metal, and by using high carbon silicon for production, manufacturers can save up to 30% of their costs and effectively improve product quality.

The applications of high carbon silicon

1.Improve the quality of molten steel, improve product quality and improve product capacity.

2.Reduce the amount of alloy added, reduce steelmaking costs, and increase economic benefits.

3. Price is very low , meanwhile quality is very stable .
