DESCRIPTION
Silicon carbide is commonly used as a deoxidizer in steelmaking because of its high affinity for oxygen. When added to molten steel, silicon carbide reacts with oxygen to form silicon dioxide (SiO2) and carbon monoxide (CO), which are both gases and can easily escape the steel. This reaction helps to remove excess oxygen from the steel and improve its quality.
In addition to its deoxidizing properties, silicon carbide also has other beneficial properties for steelmaking. It can increase the carbon content of steel by reducing carbon loss during the steelmaking process, and it can also help to refine the grain structure of the steel.
