What is a ferrosilicon ball? What is it used for? The following Anyang Yucheng Xin ferroalloy to explain to you:

Ferrosilicon is mainly silicon and iron combination of ferroalloys, ferrosilicon is to coke, steel chips and silica as raw materials, in the electric furnace to refine into ferrosilicon alloys, ferrosilicon can sometimes be used as an alloying element additive, etc., in some low-alloy structural steel, spring steel or bearing steel, etc. used more, in some chemical industries or ferroalloy production to do reducing agent use, it is precisely because of the wide range of uses of ferrosilicon, so people make them into ferrosilicon balls, so that they can make their particle size more uniform, The mesh can save a lot of fuel when used, burn longer, speed up the melting speed, and make it evenly distributed.

Ferrosilicon balls are widely used in some industrial production of smelting pig iron and ordinary casting, is a good material, ferrosilicon balls are generally used in steel slag back to smelt pig iron, improve the output, speed up the speed of production, in ordinary casting and other production is also used more.
