Application: Ferrosilicon is used primarily as a deoxidizer. It readily combines with the oxygen in the molten metal. Sometimes used as a degasifier because of its affinity for undesirable gases. Used as a source of silicon in cast iron.

Magnesium Containing Alloys

* For certain Noduloy-Alloys a silicon level of 40-42% available. More utilization of returns possible, because of the lower silicon-addition during the magnesium treatment.

** For certain Noduloy Alloys 0.5% maximum aluminum available.
