Ferro Chrome

Product Details

Ferrochrome can be divided into several types because of the content of carbon, it includes the HC FeCr, MC FeCr, and LC FeCr, the LC FeCr is with a content of carbon 0.1%max and the chrome 58%min, sometimes the content of Cr can reach 60%min.

Ferrochrome is a ferroalloy with chromium and iron as the main components. It is one of the main alloying agents used in the iron and steel industry. The addition of chromium to steel can significantly improve the oxidation resistance of steel and increase the corrosion resistance of steel. As an additive in steelmaking, ferrochrome can be used to produce a variety of high-strength, corrosion-resistant, wear-resistant, high-temperature, and oxidation-resistant special steels such as stainless steel, acid-resistant steel, heat-resistant steel, ball-bearing steel, spring steel, tool steel， etc.

Ferrochromium contains 55% to 75% chromium and is divided into high carbon (4% to 10% C), medium carbon (0.5% to 4% C), low carbon (>0.15% to 0.5% C), and low carbon (>0.15% to 0.5% C) according to the carbon content. Micro-carbon (≤0.15%C) ferrochromium. High-carbon ferrochromium is also called carbon ferrochromium, and medium, low and micro-carbon ferrochromium is also called refined ferrochromium
