Advantages of high-carbon ferrochrome for steelmaking


High-carbon ferrochrome is widely used, and it plays an important role in the field of stainless steel. So what advantages does it have? Shanghai high-carbon ferrochrome suppliers will introduce the advantages of high-carbon ferrochrome smelting stainless steel.


The construction cost of high-carbon ferrochromium is low and it is suitable for the transformation of existing ferroalloy equipment. Compared with the traditional method, because the furnace volume ratio is increased and the oxygen supply strength is promoted, the blowing time of Q345CH steel can be better controlled within half an hour. The detachable furnace bottom with ruler saves refractory materials and maintenance time, and the cost is higher.


There is a large selection of high-carbon ferrochrome charge for smelting. Cheaper high-carbon ferrochrome can be used to replace the high-cost low-carbon ferrochrome. Carbon scrap is used in large quantities to increase the nitrogen content in the steel appropriately and reduce the selection of oxidized iron alloys. The advantages of high-carbon ferrochromium can improve the quality of steel very well. Each increase of 0.1 nitrogen content can reduce the content of nickel by 2 without affecting the mechanical properties of stainless steel.
