The silicon content of iron and silicon alloy used as deoxidizer or alloy element additive is usually 45% -90%. carbon steel chips, quartze, silica, quartze sand, etc. are used as raw materials, and carbon reducing agent is added for smelting production in electric furnace. The appearance of ferrosilicon is bright gray, with low density, and the higher the silicon content, the smaller the density. ferrosilicon can also be used as a reducing agent for the production of ferromolybdenum, ferrotitanium, etc.
