1. Differences in prices between silicon carbon alloys and ferrosilicon
Silicon carbon alloy is a new type of ferroalloy product. Compared to silicon iron, silicon carbon alloy is relatively cheap at a certain cost. When purchasing the same type of silicon iron, silicon carbon alloy is often half as cheap. Therefore, when the cost of silicon iron increases, silicon carbon alloy is a better choice for suppliers to save costs and process.
2. Differences in Element Content between Silicon Carbon Alloy and Silicon Iron
Silicon carbon alloy, due to its lower price compared to ferrosilicon, will show a slight decrease in content compared to ferrosilicon. However, the smaller range of decrease can completely replace ferrosilicon. Moreover, considering the cost advantages of silicon carbon alloy, ferrosilicon alloy is a good choice for ambition.
3. Differences in application effects between silicon carbon alloy and silicon iron
Silicon carbon alloy can replace silicon iron in application, but there are still certain differences in application effects. When adding silicon carbon alloy in application, because silicon carbon alloy has slightly lower elements than silicon iron, it may be inferior in deoxidation, slag removal, and other aspects compared to silicon iron, but it completely does not affect normal operation.
