Silicon metal can be divided into chemical-grade silicon metal and industrial-grade silicon metal according to its use. What is the difference between these two kinds of silicon metal? Is the purpose the same? With these two questions, we will consult the silicon metal manufacturer Shengchi!
Industrial grade silicon metal: (also called metallurgical grade silicon metal) an industrial silicon refined from quartz stone (silicon dioxide). The industrial-grade silicon metal can be widely used in electronics, optical fiber, solar products, construction, medical, chemical, machinery and metallurgy, rubber and insulating materials, high-temperature coatings and other industrial and civil applications. It can be said that silicon metal is an indispensable raw material for solar energy products after coal and petroleum. According to the British Metal Guide: In the future, the consumption of silicon metal in the world will increase by more than 3.9% annually on average. Western countries such as Japan and the United States are major users of silicon metal. China is a major producer and exporter of industrial-grade silicon metal. Although there are more than 300 production enterprises in my country, they are generally small electric furnaces below 6300KVA, with high energy consumption and low efficiency, and there are only a dozen enterprises with a production capacity of more than 20,000 tons. Shengchi has advanced production equipment and technology. We are fully capable of producing industrial-grade silicon metal you need. Shengchi provides industrial grade silicon metal with low unit price and good quality
Chemical grade silicon metal: It is a kind of silicon metal containing impurities. The impurities are iron, aluminum, and calcium. The content of silicon is 98%. High-purity metal silicon is semiconductor silicon. The chemical formula of silicon carbide is SiC, commonly known as emery. It has great hardness, high temperature resistance and wear resistance. It is a new type of ceramic.
As a manufacturer of industrial grade silicon metal. Shengchi often receives inquiries about quotations of chemical-grade silicon metal. Writing this article is to let everyone better understand silicon metal. It is convenient for you to find the silicon metal you need.Shengchi mainly provides: Silicon Metal Powder, Silicon Metal 553, Silicon Metal 441, Silicon Metal 3303, Silicon Metal 2202
