The health of the worldwide nickel market is heavily dependent upon stainless steel production. The pricing of stainless steel is also dependent on the market prices of worldwide nickel. Two-thirds of all nickel mined and produced in the world will make its wa...

Ferrochrome is a ferroalloy composed of chromium and iron and it is classified according to its carbon content mainly.If ferrochorme has less than 0.5 % C it is named as low carbon ferrochrome and if it has 5-8 % C it is named as high carbon ferrochrome. Stand...

The ferroalloy that is still used by he largest tonnage is high carbon ferromanganese. It is the main deoxidizing agent in steelmaking and a very important alloying element. Ferromanganese can be produced in blast furmace or in submerged electric arc furnace. ...

Ferro silico manganese, which is mainly called silico manganese is manganese alloy containing 65 % Mn and 16 % Si. The main usage for silico manganese is same as ferro manganese in the steelmaking industry but while deoixidizing the steel it gives silicon elem...

FERRO SILICON : In the iron and steel industry, silicon plays a very significant role. In steelmaking it is the main deoxidant and in special alloy steels it is the main alloying element. In cast irons it is the main graphitizing agent. Ferro silicon is produ...

SÖDERBERG PASTE (ELECTRODE PASTE) : In submerged electric arc furnaces, as the electrodes are submerged inside a huge quantity of raw materials they require physically high strength. This strength can be obtained by increasing electrode diameter. To produce...

CALCIUM CARBIDE (CaC2) : It is a grey to reddish-brown crystalline material consisting a mixture of CaC2 and CaO. Commercial calcium carbide consists of 75-85 % CaC2 inside. It is mainly used for acetylene gas production, calcium cyanamide fertilizer producti...
