Low Carbon Ferromanganese constitutes approximately 80% of manganese and 1% of carbon with lower contents of sulphur, phosphorous and silicon. Low carbon ferromanganese is mostly used in the welding industry. It is an essential ingredient for making high-strength low-alloy steel and stainless steel. It serves as a major constituent of making Mild Steel Welding Electrodes (E6013, E7018) and other electrodes and is widely acclaimed for its optimum quality and accurate composition.
Application
It is mainly used as deoxidizer, desulfurizer and alloy additive in steel making.
It can improve the mechanical properties of steel and enhance the strength, ductility, toughness and wear resistance of steel.
In addition, high carbon ferromanganese can also be used to produce low and medium carbon ferromanganese.
