Silicon Metal 553

The main component of metallic silicon is silicon, so it has similar properties to silicon. Silicon has two allotropes: amorphous silicon and crystalline silicon. Amorphous silicon is a gray-black powder, which is a microcrystal. Crystalline silicon has the crystal structure and semiconductor properties of diamond, with a melting point of 1410°C, a boiling point of 2355°C, Mohs hardness of 7, and brittleness. Amorphous silicon is chemically active and can burn violently in oxygen. It reacts with non-metals such as halogen, nitrogen, and carbon at high temperatures, and can also react with metals such as magnesium, calcium, and iron to form silicides. Amorphous silicon is almost insoluble in all inorganic and organic acids, including hydrofluoric acid, but is soluble in a mixed acid of nitric acid and hydrofluoric acid. Concentrated sodium hydroxide solution can dissolve amorphous silicon and release hydrogen gas. Crystalline silicon is relatively inactive and does not combine with oxygen even at high temperatures. It is not soluble in any inorganic acid or organic acid but is soluble in mixed acids of nitric acid hydrofluoric acid and concentrated sodium hydroxide solution.

Manufacture And Use

Metallic silicon is a product smelted from quartz and coke in an electric furnace. The main component silicon content is about 98% (in recent years, 99.99% Si content is also included in metallic silicon), and the remaining impurities are iron and aluminum. , calcium, etc.

 

Applications

It is widely used in refractory materials and powder metallurgy industries to improve its heat resistance, wear resistance, and oxidation resistance.

In the field of silicone chemical industry, industrial silicon powder is the basic raw material of silicone polymers.

Industrial silicon powder is sublimated into single-crystal silicon, which is an important raw material for integrated circuits and electronic components and is widely used in high-tech fields.

In the metallurgy and foundry industries, industrial silicon powder is used as an iron-based alloy additive and an alloying agent for silicon steel to improve the hardenability of steel.

Used in high-temperature material production to make enamels and pottery. These also serve the needs of the semiconductor industry by producing ultra-pure silicon wafers.
