What is Ferro Silicon 70?

Ferrosilicon is an iron alloy composed of iron and silicon, ferrosilicon is an iron-silicon alloy made from coke, scrap steel, quartz (or silica) as raw materials, melted in an electric furnace. Ferrosilicon 70 is available at favourable prices and processed in natural lumps, standard lumps, granules and powder sizes.

Ferrosilicon is an essential deoxidiser in the steelmaking industry. In torch steel, ferrosilicon is used for precipitation deoxidation and diffusion deoxidation. Ferrosilicon is also used as an alloying agent in steelmaking. Adding a certain amount of silicon to steel can significantly improve the strength, hardness and elasticity of steel, increase the magnetic permeability of steel and reduce the hysteresis loss of transformer steel.

Chemical Composition of Ferro Silicon 70

The chemical composition of ferro silicon 70 is crucial to its performance and applications. The high silicon content is what gives ferro silicon 70 its characteristic properties and makes it so valuable in metallurgical processes.

Iron (Fe) Balance
Aluminum (Al) 1.5% max
Carbon (C) 0.1-0.2%
Phosphorus (P) 0.04% max
Sulfur (S) 0.02% max

Specifications and particle size: Natural block, 10-100mm, powder or as per customer’s requirements.

Packaging: One metric ton per bag or as per customer’s requirements

Ferrosilicon 70 improves steel performance

The mechanical performance of ferro silicon 70 is primarily evaluated in terms of its effect on the metals to which it is added. Here’s a table summarizing some key mechanical properties influenced by ferro silicon 70 when used as an additive in steel production:

Property Effect of Ferro Silicon 70
Tensile Strength Increases by 15-20%
Yield Strength Improves by 10-15%
Hardness Enhances by 10-30 HB
Ductility Maintains or slightly decreases
Wear Resistance Increases significantly
Heat Resistance Improves up to 15%

These improvements in mechanical properties contribute to the production of higher quality steels and cast irons, enabling the creation of stronger, more durable products across various industries.
