Introduction to Ferrochrome

Chromium iron is an iron alloy composed of chromium and iron. Chromium iron is an important alloy additive in steelmaking. High carbon ferrochrome is made from chromite and silicon as slag fluxes. It is a solid solution of chromium, iron, and carbon, and a complex compound of chromium, iron, and carbon. This product is one of the most common ferroalloys, with characteristics such as high strength, corrosion resistance, wear resistance, high temperature resistance, and oxidation resistance.

Introduction to Low Carbon Ferrochrome

Low carbon ferrochrome is an iron alloy containing low carbon and chromium elements, typically with a higher chromium content and lower carbon content. This alloy has a wide range of applications in the steel industry, mainly used as an alloying element in steelmaking to improve the hardness, wear resistance, and corrosion resistance of steel

Specification and particle size: natural lump, 10-100mm, powder or according to customer's requirement.

Packing: one metric tonne in a big bag or according to customer's requirement

Specification and Uses of low-carbon ferrochrome

The specifications of low-carbon ferrochrome are usually represented by the chromium content and carbon content in its chemical composition. The specifications of my low-carbon ferrochrome mainly include the following:

1. High purity low-carbon ferrochrome: chromium content above 99%, carbon content below 0.03%

2. Ordinary low-carbon ferrochrome: chromium content is between 95% -99%, and carbon content is between 0.03% -0.15%.

3. High carbon and low-carbon ferrochrome: The chromium content is between 90% -95%, and the carbon content is between 0.15% -0.30%.

The smelting methods of microcarbon ferrochrome include electrosilicon heat method and hot mixing method. It is mainly used to improve the oxidation resistance and corrosion resistance of steel, so that the surface of the steel in the oxidising atmosphere to form a layer of adherence to a very strong oxidising film, and then the oxidation stops or the oxidation rate is slowed down. Microcarbon ferrochrome is mainly used in the production of stainless steel, wear-resistant and heat-resistant steel.
