Silicon-carbon alloy is an alloy mainly composed of silicon and carbon elements. All models like Si68C18 Si65C15 HC-Si Alloy, have applicable in steel smelting because of its good deoxidation and carburization functions. Just like silicon metal, it use raw materials such as silica and petroleum coke through high-temperature reduction reactions in high-temperature electric furnaces in production process. In fact, Siilcon Carbon Alloy is a by-product in the production process of silicon metals.
Silicon Carbon Alloy is a compound of Si and C as the main elements just like silicon carbide. Silicon Recarb is its another common name. Some people also call it Silicon Carbide Alloy. However, Silicon Carbide is an inorganic compound combining silicon and carbon atoms in the molecular structure, while the Si and C in High Carbon Silicon are mostly Exists in a simple elemental form. Some people also call it High carbon ferrosilicon. However, it does not contain a lot of iron.
HC-Si Alloy Models Si68C18 Si65C15
Regular Silicon Carbon Alloy models include Si68C18 and Si65C15, which containing more than 68% and 65% silicon respectively. Elemental silicon has good deoxidation and desulfurization effects in molten steel. Meanwhile, carbon element can increase the carbon content in liquid iron and improve the strength of steel products. At the same time, carbon also has deoxidation and warming effects to the liquid steel. Generally speaking, silicon-carbon alloy can improve the quality of molten steel, improve product quality, reduce adding amount of ferro-alloys, so as to reduce steelmaking costs and increase economic benefits.
Therefore, Si68C18 Si65C15 HC-Si Alloy are suitable in the metallurgical industry, especially in the steelmaking process. It can be goods deoxidizers, carburizers, refractories, and additive in high-strength metal materials. It can replace traditional materials, improve the quality of molten steel, product performance, reduce steelmaking costs, and increase economic benefits.
Specifically, silicon-carbon alloy can replace traditional ferro silicon, silicon carbide, carburizer, etc., reduce the amount of deoxidizer, and achieve stable results in the deoxidation alloying process of converter smelting.
