Ferrosilicon granules are an alloy of silicon and iron with the chemical symbol FeSi. The silicon content is usually between 70% and 75%, while the iron content is between 20% and 25%. Ferrosilicon granules may also contain other impurity elements such as manganese, chromium, molybdenum, nickel and vanadium.

Ferrosilicon granules are grey metallic particles, usually in the form of lumps or powder. They have a density of 7.2 to 7.8 g/cm³ and a melting point of around 1200 degree . At high temperatures, ferrosilicon granules are not easily oxidised and have a high magnetic susceptibility. What are the product characteristics of ferrosilicon granules?

1. Uniform composition and low segregation: The uniform composition of ferrosilicon grains helps to achieve more stable performance during the smelting process.

2. Uniform particle size and no fines: The uniform particle size distribution of ferrosilicon grains and the absence of fines help to improve the stability of the inoculation effect.
