Silicon Metal Powder

Silicon metal is an alloy consisting of a high percentage of silicon and various amounts of iron, calcium and aluminum. This material is known in the industry by other names such as industrial silicon and crystalline silicon. Silicon metal in the industry is classified in different grades 441, 421, 553, 3303, 3305, 2202, 1501, 1101 etc. Among these, silicon metal 441 is the most widely used type in the country. Silicon metal was first used in the production of semi-conductor materials, but today it is used in a wide range of applications from the aircraft manufacturing industry to lubricants and hydrophobic compounds, paint, adhesives, polishes and in metal smelting industries as a reducing agent. This material is also widely used in the iron core of engines, transformer reinforcement and equipment needed in electrical, chemical, shipbuilding and solar cell manufacturing industries. Silicon metal powder is widely used in refractory industries, and Khorasan Powder Metallurgy Company has the ability to produce it according to customer needs.
