Ngaphezu kokusetshenziselwa ukwenza insimbi, i-ferrosilicon iphinde isetshenziswe njenge-deoxidizer ekuncibilikisweni kwensimbi ye-magnesium. Inqubo yokwenza insimbi iyinqubo lapho insimbi encibilikisiwe ikhishwa khona futhi isuse ukungcola okuyingozi njenge-phosphorus nesibabule ngokufutha umoya-mpilo noma ukwengeza ama-oxidants. Phakathi nenqubo yokwenza insimbi ngensimbi yengulube, okuqukethwe komoyampilo ensimbi encibilikisiwe kuyanda kancane kancane, futhi ngokuvamile kuvezwa i-FeO ekhona ensimbi encibilikisiwe. Uma i-oxygen eyengeziwe esele ensimbi ingasuswa ku-silicon-manganese alloy, ayikwazi ukuphonswa ku-billet yensimbi efanelekayo, futhi insimbi enezakhiwo ezinhle zemishini ayikwazi ukutholakala.
Ukuze wenze lokhu, kuyadingeka ukwengeza izakhi ezithile ezinamandla okubopha nge-oxygen kune-iron, futhi ama-oxide ayo kulula ukuwakhipha ensimbi encibilikisiwe ku-slag. Ngokwamandla okubopha ezingxenyeni ezihlukahlukene zensimbi encibilikisiwe emoyeni, ukuhleleka kokusuka kokubuthakathaka kuye kokuqinile kungokulandelayo: i-chromium, i-manganese, ikhabhoni, i-silicon, i-vanadium, i-titanium, i-boron, i-aluminium, i-zirconium, ne-calcium. Ngakho-ke, ama-alloys ensimbi akhiwa i-silicon, i-manganese, i-aluminium, ne-calcium avame ukusetshenziselwa ukukhishwa kwe-deoxidation ekwenzeni insimbi.
Isetshenziswa njenge-ejenti ye-alloying. Izakhi ze-alloying azikwazi ukunciphisa kuphela okuqukethwe kokungcola ensimbi, kodwa futhi zilungise ukwakheka kwamakhemikhali ensimbi. Izakhi ze-alloying ezivame ukusetshenziswa zifaka i-silicon, i-manganese, i-chromium, i-molybdenum, i-vanadium, i-titanium, i-tungsten, i-cobalt, i-boron, i-niobium, njll. Isetshenziswa njenge-ejenti yokunciphisa. Ngaphezu kwalokho, i-ferrosilicon ingasetshenziswa njenge-ejenti yokunciphisa ukukhiqizwa kwe-ferromolybdenum, i-ferrovanadium namanye ama-alloys ensimbi. Ingxubevange ye-silicon-chromium ne-silicon-manganese alloy ingasetshenziswa njengezinciphisi zokucwenga i-medium-low carbon ferrochromium kanye ne-medium-low carbon ferromanganese ngokulandelanayo.
Ngamafuphi, i-silicon ingathuthukisa kakhulu ukunwebeka kanye nokuqina kazibuthe kwensimbi. Ngakho-ke, ama-silicon alloys kumele asetshenziswe lapho kuncibilikiswa insimbi yesakhiwo, insimbi yamathuluzi, insimbi yasentwasahlobo kanye nensimbi ye-silicon yama-transformers; insimbi evamile iqukethe i-silicon engu-0.15% -0.35%, insimbi yesakhiwo iqukethe i-silicon engu-0.40% -1.75%, futhi insimbi yamathuluzi iqukethe i-Silicon 0.30% -1.80%, i-spring steel iqukethe i-silicon 0.40% -2.80%, insimbi engagqwali emelana ne-asidi iqukethe i-silicon 3.40% -4.00%, insimbi ekwazi ukumelana nokushisa iqukethe i-silicon 1.00% -3.00%, i-silicon steel iqukethe i-silicon 2% - 3% noma ngaphezulu. I-Manganese inganciphisa ukubola kwensimbi, ithuthukise ukusebenza okushisayo kwensimbi, futhi ikhulise amandla, ubulukhuni nokumelana nokugqokwa kwensimbi.
