About Ferro-Silicon
Ferro-silicon is an iron-silicon alloy containing 45-90% silicon, primarily used as a deoxidizer and desulfurizer in steel production and cast iron manufacturing. It also serves in aluminum alloys and chemical applications. International trade focuses on standardized grades: 75%, 65%, and 45% silicon content, with 75% being the most common. China dominates global production, followed by Russia, Norway, and India. Buyers should verify silicon content through independent assay before acceptance, as oxidation during storage and transport can reduce effective silicon levels, impacting metallurgical performance in downstream applications.
