Introduction to metal silicon powder:

Metal silicon powder is a powder made by grinding metal silicon. Good metal silicon powder has a uniform particle size and is very effective when used. Metal silicon is used in ferroalloy smelting. So the question is, why should we use metal silicon powder? In fact, silicon metal powder  has many advantages over natural blocks of metallic silicon. However, many people do not know much about what advantages metal silicon powder has in ferroalloy smelting.

1. Deoxidation

silicon metal powder  contains a certain amount of silicon element, which can produce silicon dioxide through affinity interaction with oxygen. It also reduces the reaction capacity during smelting while deoxidizing, making deoxidation safer!

2. Application in silicone industry

Metal silicon powder can participate in the synthesis of silicone polymers. Through metal silicon powder, high-quality silicon monomers, silicone rubber, silicone oil and other products can be produced!

3. High temperature resistance

silicon metal powder  can be used in the production of refractory materials and powder metallurgy industries. Adding metal silicon powder during smelting can quickly improve the high-temperature resistance of the product, which is usually required by the steelmaking industry!

4. Wear resistance

In the production of some wear-resistant castings, adding metal silicon powder can also be used to improve the wear resistance of castings. The use of metal silicon powder can effectively improve the life and quality of castings!

5. Application in metallurgical casting industry

silicon metal powder   has also been widely used in the metallurgical casting industry. When steelmaking, metal silicon powder can be used as a deoxidizer, alloy additive, etc. The effect is very significant. At the same time, metal silicon powder can also be used in the production of castings. For use as inoculants.
