Ferro Silicon 75

Ferro silicon 75 is an alloy of iron and silicon. The silicon content is about 75%. It is mainly used as a deoxidizer and an alloying element in steelmaking. It improves the hardness and strength of steel and increases resistance to oxidation. Ferro silicon 75 is also used in the production of cast iron to improve fluidity and reduce shrinkage.

Ferro Vanadium 60

Ferro vanadium 60 is an alloy of iron and vanadium. The vanadium content is about 60%. It is used as an additive in steel production to increase tensile strength, toughness, and wear resistance. Ferro vanadium 60 is especially important in the production of high-strength low-alloy steels.

Main Difference

The main difference between ferro silicon 75 and ferro vanadium 60 lies in the alloying element. Ferro silicon 75 contains silicon and is mainly used for deoxidizing and improving castability. Ferro vanadium 60 contains vanadium and is mainly used for strengthening steel and increasing resistance.

Applications

Applications of Ferro Silicon 75

  • Steelmaking: Acts as a deoxidizer to remove oxygen from molten steel and improve purity.
  • Cast iron: Enhances fluidity and reduces shrinkage during casting.
  • Alloy production: Used in the manufacturing of silicon steel and other special steels.
  • Foundry industry: Improves the mechanical properties of castings.

 

Applications of Ferro Vanadium 60
