CARBOLON® MA

CARBOLON® MA is a domestically produced 90% minimum silicon carbide grain, manufactured specifically for use in the iron and steel industry. It is a prime source of silicon and carbon, and due to its powerful deoxidizing effect, CARBOLON® MA imparts metallurgical benefits to the metal and enhances furnace lining life. CARBOLON® MA’s low nitrogen and sulfur content make it ideal for producing all types of irons. It also has an inert content that yields slags with a melting point and consistency that allows efficient slag removal from the furnace.

 

Applications

  • Electric furnace production of gray, ductile or malleable iron and steel
  • Production of steel as a solid fuel to replace hot metal or adjust temperature
  • Reduce metal from Metal Oxides in slag; improving recoveries of valuable elements such as manganese and chromium
