Silicon carbide is now in increasing demand by major steel mills and foundries. Since it is cheaper than ferrosilicon, many foundries choose to use silicon carbide instead of ferrosilicon to increase silicon and carburize.

On April 13th, 2024, Zhenan received Indian customers who came to inspect the company environment and factory environment.

On March 27th, 2024, Zhenan New Materials had the privilege of welcoming an important customer team from Chile. The visit aimed to deepen their understanding of ZhenAn’s production environment, product quality, and service commitment. Zhenan offers you solutions for top-notch product supply. It has a 30,000 square meter footprint, produces and sells more than 1.5 million tonnes of goods annually, and is equipped with all the latest production tools. Our dedication lies in offering premium ferroalloys, Silicon Metal Lumps and powders, ferrotungsten, ferrovanadium, and ferrotitanium, Ferro Silicon and other items.

Ferrosilicon balls, which are pressed from ferrosilicon powder and ferrosilicon grains, are used as a deoxidizer and alloying agent in the steelmaking process and should be deoxidized at a later stage of steelmaking to obtain steel with qualified chemical composition and to ensure the quality of the steel.

Ferroalloys in the foundry industry as steelmaking nucleus inoculant. One of the measures to change the performance of cast iron and cast steel is to change the casting solidification conditions in order to change the solidification conditions, often in the casting before adding certain ferroalloys as nuclei, the formation of grain centre, so that the formation of graphite becomes small dispersed, grain refinement, thus upgrading the performance of the casting.

Silicon metal powder, as an important industrial raw material, plays an important role in the field of refractories. Its application will have an impact on the performance of refractory materials.
