High carbon silicon is a new metallurgical material that has undergone rapid development in the metallurgical industry. Its price is cheaper than traditional metallurgical materials, but it can be used instead of traditional metallurgical materials such as ferrosilicon and silicon carbide. It has been used by steel manufacturers for a long time. Used instead of metallurgical materials such as ferrosilicon.Next, Hensfate metal will share with you in detail the role of high carbon silicon in the steelmaking and casting process

1. Deoxidation advantages of high carbon silicon

High carbon silicon contains silicon element. After adding silicon carbon alloy in the steelmaking process, the silicon element in the silicon carbon alloy reacts with oxygen, so that the oxygen deoxidation in the molten steel improves the hardness and quality of the steel, and the silicon element in the silicon carbon alloy is closely related to the oxygen. Oxygen has a good affinity, so the molten steel also has the characteristics of no splash after being placed.

2. Advantages of slag collection of high carbon silicon

High carbon silicon also has the advantage of slag collection. Putting a certain proportion of high carbon silicon into molten steel can make the oxides in the steelmaking process quickly form agglomeration, which is convenient for filtration treatment, making the molten steel more pure and greatly improving the density and hardness of the steel.

3. High carbon silicon has the purpose of increasing furnace temperature

High-carbon silicon is a good temperature-resistant material. In the process of steelmaking, adding high-carbon silicon can increase the furnace temperature, increase the conversion rate of ferroalloys, and accelerate the reaction speed of molten steel and elements.

Today, when ferroalloy materials are more expensive, high-carbon silicon, as a new type of metallurgical material, is favored by many manufacturers because its price is lower than that of traditional metallurgical materials. High-carbon silicon can replace expensive metallurgical materials such as ferrosilicon, and achieve unexpected Satisfied with the effect, so the use of high carbon silicon can save the cost of the manufacturer and increase the profit.
