Application of atomized silicon iron powder

2025,07,07

Ferrosilicon is an iron-silicon alloy produced by smelting coke, steel shavings, and quartz (or silica) in an electric furnace. As silicon readily combines with oxygen to form silicon dioxide (SiO₂), ferro silicon serves as an effective deoxidizer in steelmaking. The formation of SiO₂ releases substantial heat, aiding in elevating molten steel temperature during deoxidation. Additionally, ferrosilicon functions as an alloying element additive, widely employed in low-alloy structural steel, spring steel, bearing steel, heat-resistant steel, and electrical silicon steel.

Ferrosilicon is commonly utilized as a reducing agent in ferroalloy production and chemical industries. The alloy can be processed into ferrosilicon powder, including specialized forms such as Atomized fesi powder (Si: 13-75%). Produced via advanced smelting and atomization technologies, this atomized and Milled Ferrosilicon Powder features:

●Exceptionally low oxygen content
●Spherical/quasi-spherical morphology
●Superior spreading/flow characteristics
●Integral particle formation with uniform granulometry
●Non-foaming behavior in electrode coatings

These properties – unattainable with conventional ferrosilicon powders – enhance welding rod pressure-coating performance, arc stability, and final product quality. Atomized FeSi powder represents a fundamental process innovation over traditional crushing/stewing methods, eliminating hazardous gas emissions, operator health risks, and environmental contamination from particulate matter. Market factors including ferro silicon price influence its commercial applications across sectors, particularly in dense medium separation.
