Ferrosilicon FeSi 75/65 | High Purity Silicon Iron for Steel Refining, Alloy Steel & Foundry | 10–50mm / 10–100mm
Steelmakers and foundries frequently face operational challenges when using ferrosilicon:
- Silicon yield loss due to oxidation and fines
- Inconsistent silicon addition affecting alloy steel quality
- Graphitization and melt uniformity issues in cast iron production
- Increased costs from repeated alloying corrections
Ferrosilicon FeSi 75/65 from ZhenAn is designed to deliver high silicon purity, precise particle sizing, and industrial-grade consistency, ensuring reliable steel refining, alloying, and casting performance.
- Silicon (Si): approx. 65%
- Moderate deoxidation strength suitable for standard steel grades
- Supports carbon steel, low-alloy steel, and conventional foundry iron
- Optimized for predictable melt behavior and cost-efficiency
- Silicon (Si): approx. 75%
- Strong deoxidizer for high-grade and alloy steels
- Fast melting with high silicon recovery
- Ideal for stainless steel, specialty alloys, and low-oxygen steel grades
Selecting the appropriate FeSi grade ensures stable steel chemistry, consistent alloying, and reduced production variability.
