What is the difference between silicon carbon alloy and ferrosilicon?

What is the difference between silicon carbon alloy and ferrosilicon?

Both silicon-carbon alloy and ferrosilicon contain silicon, which can be used in steelmaking and foundry industries and play a very important role in them. The following hensfate metal will share with you in detail;
  1. Silicon-carbon alloy is a new type of ferroalloy. Silicon-carbon alloy is cheaper than ferrosilicon. When purchasing the same type of ferrosilicon, silicon-carbon alloy can often be 2/5 cheaper. Therefore, when the price of ferrosilicon rises Lower silicon-carbon alloy is a better choice for manufacturers to save cost.
  2. Because the price of silicon-carbon alloy is cheaper than that of ferrosilicon, the content of silicon-carbon alloy will be slightly lower than that of ferrosilicon. However, the decrease range is small and it can be used instead of ferrosilicon. Price advantage, silicon carbon alloy is a better choice.
  3. Silicon-carbon alloy can be used instead of ferrosilicon, but there will still be a certain difference in the use effect. Because silicon-carbon alloy has a slightly lower element than ferrosilicon and silicon, it has better deoxidation and slag removal than ferrosilicon. It is inferior, but does not affect normal use at all.The above is what hensfate metal shared for you about the difference between silicon carbon alloy and ferrosilicon.
