How to use silicon manganese alloy balls?

As one of the commonly used composite deoxidizing agents in steelmaking, the silicon manganese alloy ball is composed of an alloy composed of manganese, silicon, iron and a small amount of carbon and other elements. In the industrial production, the silicon manganese alloy ball plays a very important role.

Manganese is one of the important deoxidizing agents in the process of steelmaking. The oxygen product generated has a low melting point and is easy to float. All kinds of steel need it for deoxidizing.

In addition, as an important alloying element in steel, 15% manganese is also added to alloy steel to increase the structural strength of steel. In steel production, silicon is mainly used as a deoxidizer of molten metal, or as an alloy additive to increase the strength of steel and improve its properties. Silicon is the most important alloying element in pig iron and carbon steel, next to manganese.

Silicon manganese alloy balls are produced by smelting manganese oxide and silicon dioxide in manganese ore and silica by simultaneously reducing them with carbon in the ore furnace. The production of silicon manganese alloy balls is carried out in the ore furnace, using carbonaceous reducing agent, roasted manganese ore and silica as raw materials, lime, dolomite, fluorite as flux in the electric furnace continuous production.
