- Here are some of the major applications:
- Steelmaking:
- Deoxidising agent: Ferrosilicon is added to molten steel to remove oxygen, which improves the quality of steel by preventing oxide formation.
- Alloying agent: Used to introduce silicon into steel, which affects its strength, hardness and corrosion resistance.
- Foundry industry:
- Cast Iron Manufacturing: Ferrosilicon is used in the production of cast iron to increase strength, hardness and wear resistance. It also increases the fluidity of the molten metal.
