FeSi72, meanwhile, traded at steady levels with normal inquiry volume. Buyers who prioritize cost efficiency continue to lean toward FeSi72, especially for general-purpose alloying.
What's Driving the Price Gap?
Exporters attribute today's price difference to three main factors:
Higher silicon content in FeSi75
Production of 75% Si requires stricter raw material selection and more stable furnace operation, raising costs.
More consistent export demand for FeSi75
Many downstream users prefer FeSi75 for controlled dosing, which supports firmer pricing.
Balanced supply conditions
Producers note that both grades have comfortable inventory levels, but FeSi75 sees more regular long-term orders.
Market participants expect the price gap to remain stable in the near term.
Unless a wave of cost-driven pressure appears, FeSi72 and FeSi75 are likely to maintain their current spread, with little sign of sharp movement in either direction.
