What Is Industrial Silicon? What Are The Main Uses Of Industrial Silicon?

ZhenAn Silicon Metal

 

Metallic silicon is a product smelted from silica and carbonaceous reducing agent in a submerged arc furnace. The main component silicon content is about 98%, and the remaining impurities are iron, aluminum, calcium, etc.

 

Industrial silicon is divided into various specifications due to its different uses. According to the content of iron, aluminum and calcium in metalloid silicon, metalloid silicon can be divided into 553, 441, 411, 421, 3303, 3305, 2202, 2502, 1501, 1101 and other different brands. Additional products of metalloid silicon include microsilica powder, edge silicon, black silicon, metallic silicon slag, etc. Among them, microsilica powder is also called silica fume, which is widely used in the refractory and concrete industries.

Photovoltaic Grade Polysilicon

 

In the aluminum alloy industry, silicon-aluminum alloy is the most commonly used silicon alloy. Silicon-aluminum alloy is a strong composite deoxidizer. Replacing pure aluminum in the steelmaking process can improve the utilization rate of the deoxidizer, purify the molten steel, and improve the quality of the steel.

Monocrystal Silicon

 

In the chemical industry, metallic silicon can be used to produce silicone rubber, silicone resin, silicone oil and other organic silicones. Silicone rubber has good elasticity and high temperature resistance, and is used to make medical supplies, high temperature resistant gaskets, etc. Silicone resin is used in the production of insulating paint, high-temperature coatings, etc. Silicone oil is an oily substance whose viscosity is very little affected by temperature. It is used to produce high-grade lubricants, polishes, fluid springs, dielectric liquids, etc. It can also be processed into a colorless and transparent liquid and sprayed as a high-grade waterproofing agent. on building surfaces.
