Detailed Product Description

Ferroalloys
Get to know the ferroalloy products and ferro-alloy raw materials that define the steel-making industry.
Iron manufacturers create ferroalloys by mixing in other metals, usually to decrease the iron's rate of corrosion and oxidization. Silicon, phosphorous, tungsten, manganese and chromium are the most common additive metals. Different combinations and amounts of metals affect the durability, hardness, ductility and strength of the steel created from ferroalloys products.

Ferroalloy refers to various alloys of iron with a high proportion of one or more other element, manganese or silicon for example. It is used in the production of steels and alloys as a raw material.[

The main ferroalloys as follow:

FeMn - ferromanganese (high carbon&low carbon)
FeCr - ferrochromium
FeMg - ferromagnesium
FeMo - ferromolybdenum - min. 60% Mo, max. 1% Si, max. 0.5% Cu
FeNi - ferronickel
FeTi - ferrotitanium - 10..30-65..75% Ti, max. 5-6.5% Al, max. 1-4% Si
FeV - ferrovanadium
FeSi - ferrosilicon - 15-90% Si
FeB - ferroboron - 12-20% of boron, max. 3% of silicon, max. 2% aluminium, max. 1% of C
FeP - ferrophosphorus
FeCe - ferrocerium
FeNb - ferroniobium, also called ferrocolumbium
FeW - ferrotungsten
FeAl - ferroaluminum
SiMn - silicomanganese
FeSiMg ferrosilicon magnesium (with Mg 4 to 25 %), also called nodulizer..
