Why the cost of ferrosilicon production will lead to a rebound in the price of magnesium ingot?
The rising price of ferrosilicon means that the cost of raw material will rise and magnesium ingot producers will inevitably raise their prices.
75# ferrosilicon in pidgeonmagnesiumprocess often used in high temperature smelting process of magnesium metal, will be replaced from CaO.MgO mg, each ton of magnesium will consume 1.2 tons of ferrosilicon, plays a big role in magnesium production.
Ferrosilicon is made of coke, steel chips, quartz (or silica) as raw material, smelting by electric furnace iron silicon alloy. Silicon and oxygen are easily synthesized into silicon dioxide, so ferrosilicon is used as a reducing agent in the smelting industry.
