Ferrosilicon FeSi 75/55 | Premium Grade Silicon Alloy for Steelmaking, Deoxidation & Casting | 10–100mm / 10–220mm

Steelmakers and alloy producers often struggle to balance silicon reactivity, recovery rate, and slag control during deoxidation and alloying. High-silicon alloys can react too aggressively, while lower grades may lead to incomplete deoxidation and unstable chemistry.

Ferrosilicon FeSi 75/55 from ZhenAn is engineered to address this challenge by offering controlled silicon content ranges (55–75% Si) combined with flexible particle sizing. This allows metallurgical teams to fine-tune silicon input according to furnace type, steel grade, and casting requirements.

FeSi 75/55 is a premium-grade silicon iron alloy designed for both high-silicon and medium-silicon metallurgical operations. By covering the 55–75% silicon range, this grade provides versatility for:

• Electric arc furnace (EAF) steelmaking
• Ladle metallurgy and secondary refining
• Casting and foundry operations
• Alloy steel and specialty steel production

Oxygen-related defects such as inclusions, porosity, and inconsistent mechanical properties remain major concerns in steel production. FeSi 75/55 provides predictable deoxidation behavior by forming stable silicon oxides while maintaining controlled reaction intensity.

Steelmaking Benefits:

• Improved steel cleanliness
• Reduced slag instability
• Higher silicon recovery rate
• Consistent ladle chemistry

In alloy steel manufacturing, silicon directly affects strength, oxidation resistance, and toughness. The flexible Si range of FeSi 75/55 allows producers to adapt silicon input based on steel grade requirements without switching alloy systems.

Common applications include:

• Structural steels
• Engineering steels
• Low- and medium-alloy steels

In cast iron and steel casting, silicon iron 75/55 improves:

• Metal fluidity
• Graphite morphology control
• Surface finish quality
• Machinability

The availability of 10–220mm coarse sizes supports controlled silicon release in larger melting units.

ZhenAn supplies Ferrosilicon FeSi 75/55 in multiple size ranges to match different furnace designs:

• 10–100mm – Faster melting, suitable for EAF and ladle addition
• 10–220mm – Slower dissolution, ideal for large furnaces and casting operations

This reduces alloy loss and improves process efficiency.

• Flexible Silicon Range (55–75%) – One grade, multiple process solutions
• Low Sulfur & Phosphorus – Supports clean steel and defect reduction
• Electric Arc Furnace Smelting – Stable composition and quality consistency
• Strict Size Screening – Uniform granulation for predictable melting behavior
• 30+ Years of Ferroalloy Experience – Trusted by global steel and alloy producers

FeSi 75/55 is produced using selected quartz and iron sources in modern electric arc furnaces. Controlled smelting parameters ensure:

• Uniform silicon distribution
• Minimal impurity pickup
• Consistent physical structure

Post-smelting crushing and screening deliver precise particle size ranges.

• Improved silicon utilization efficiency
• Reduced alloy consumption per ton of steel
• Lower inclusion and defect rates
• Enhanced casting consistency
• Better control of secondary metallurgy
