FerroSilicon (FeSi 72%)

Ferrosilicon (FeSi) is an alloy of iron and silicon used in steel production. This ferroalloy is used in steel production and casting, increasing hardness and deoxidizing properties and improving the strength and quality of iron steel products.

Typical Applications
Ferrosilicon has many uses in a variety of industries. Ferrosilicon helps prevent carbon loss from molten steel when used as a deoxidizer in steel production. It is also used in the manufacturing of other ferroalloys. It has uses in metallurgical industries with atomization, casting, melting, and heavy media separation reactions. Ferrosilicon can be used as a source of pure silicon in the electric industry, in the manufacturing of semiconductors, and to manufacture silicon copper in the chemical industry.

Ferromolybdenum FeMo

Ferromolybdenum (FeMo) is an alloy that contains molybdenum and iron. Many manufacturers use it in other high-strength low alloys and stainless steels because of its versatility. Ferromolybdenum has various properties that make it ideal for multiple applications.

Typical Applications
Ferromolybdenum can be used in tool steels, superalloy applications and cast irons. Overall, this alloy can improve a material’s weldability, ferrite strength and resistance to wear and corrosion. These improvements result in a more robust, durable material overall.
