What Is the Difference Between Ferrosilicon and Silicomanganese?​

Property
​Ferrosilicon​
​Silicomanganese​
​Main Components​
Iron + Silicon (typically 15–95% Si)
Iron + Silicon (~14–21%) + Manganese (~65–68%)
​Function​
Primarily a deoxidizer and alloying agent for silicon
Deoxidizer and alloying agent for both silicon and manganese
​Manganese Content​
Very low or negligible
Significant (65–68%)
​Uses​
Used in steel, cast iron; improves strength, corrosion resistance
Used in steelmaking for deoxidation, improving mechanical properties
​Silicon Range​
Varies widely (e.g., FeSi 75% Si is common)
Typically 14–21%
 In short: ​​Ferrosilicon = Fe + Si​​; ​​Silicomanganese = Fe + Si + Mn​
