The melting point of ferrosilicon alloys is lower than that of iron, mostly lower than 1673 K. Because the reduction temperature is much higher than the liquidus, pouring these alloys is generally not difficult and it is normal to tap the metal into the ladle and pour it into the mold. Ferrosilicon ... Read More
