Performance of Ferro Silicon Magnesium
Ferro silicon magnesium is widely used as an ideal nodularizer and nodularizer in steelmaking, casting, metallurgy, and aluminum alloy manufacturing industries. Due to its excellent performance, it is highly favored by users in the industry. In steelmaking, ferro silicon magnesium demonstrates good deoxidizing properties, effectively removing oxygen from molten steel, which reduces the number of oxides and improves the state of the steel. Additionally, ferro silicon magnesium has lower impurities, satisfying the production needs of high-grade steel. Ferro silicon magnesium containing rare earth elements exhibits high nodularization performance in casting processes, effectively promoting the quantity of eutectic spheroids in molten iron, enhancing the nodularization effect, and thereby reducing the amount of nodularizer required, which lowers casting costs.
Chemical Properties of Ferro silicon magnesium
Ferro silicon magnesium Chemical composition mainly consists of elements such as Re, Mg, Ca, Si, and Mn. Its chemical properties are primarily reflected in:
- Oxidizing Nature: Due to the abundant Si in Ferro silicon magnesium, it easily oxidizes in an oxygen environment.
- Reducing Ability: Utilizing its excellent reducing properties, it effectively reduces elements in raw materials during metallurgical processes, generating molten metal and enhancing metallurgical efficiency.
- Decomposition: In high-temperature electric furnace environments, ferro silicon magnesium shows good decomposition properties, effectively improving the smelting environment and providing good insulation.
- Chemical Reaction: It can react chemically with other metal alloys, for instance, during aluminum smelting, it easily interacts with aluminum to produce silicon-aluminum alloys.
- Alloying: Ferro silicon magnesium effectively improves the crystalline structure and properties of steel, thereby enhancing the strength and toughness of the alloy.
Physical Properties of Ferro silicon magnesium
Ferro silicon magnesium appears as a black or gray block alloy. It can be processed into ferro silicon magnesium cored wire, ferro silicon magnesium lumps, and powder products, applicable across various industries. Its density typically ranges from 2.5-3.0 g/cm³, with a melting point of approximately 1200-1300°C, resulting in a molten metal with good fluidity. In terms of thermal conductivity, ferro silicon magnesium has good surface performance, effectively transferring heat during the smelting process. It has moderate hardness, allowing it to be easily processed after slight heating. Ferro silicon magnesium is brittle at room temperature but does not deform easily; it shows good ductility in high-temperature environments, facilitating smelting or casting.
