Ferro Silico Manganese alloy consists of manganese, silicon, iron, carbon, and a small number of impurities. According to the content of carbon, the ferrosilicon manganese is classified into low carbon silico manganese, medium carbon silico manganese, and high carbon silico manganese.
Silico Manganese Uses
Ferro silicon manganese is widely used in the steel industry. The affinity of manganese and silicon with oxygen is strong. Using the ferrosilicon manganese in steelmaking the melting points of MnSiO3 and MnSiO4 are 1270℃ and 1327℃, respectively. It has the advantages of low melting point, large particles, floating easily, and a good deoxygenation effect. Under the same conditions, using manganese or silicon deoxidation alone, the burning rate of Mn and Si is 46% and 37%, while using silicon manganese alloy deoxidation, the burning rate of both manganese and silicon elements is 29%. Therefore, silicon-manganese alloys are used in steelmaking as a deoxidizing agent and an alloying agent.

Specification of Ferrosilicon Manganese
The useful elements in silicomanganese alloys are Mn, Si, and Fe. The harmful elements in silicomanganese alloys are C, P, and S.
We can supply Mn60Si14, Mn65Si17, Mn68Si18, or other grades as your requirement.

Ferro Silico Manganese Price
According to Ferroalloy Online, on August 26, 2022, the spot market price of silicon manganese remains sluggish. Despite the low volume, silicomanganese producers are reluctant to sell at lower prices. The operating rate of southern manufacturers is low, and the supply of ferro silico manganese is relatively scarce. The price of Mn65Si17 is ¥7000-7200 (EXW natural block).
Recent hot weather continues, the country limits industrial power consumption, and some large ferrosilicon manganese manufacturers in southern China shut down production Even if the electricity crunch eases by the end of the month, overall production is slow to recover.

Experienced purchasers began to arrange orders for silicon manganese.
1. The price of silico manganese is low recently, the manufacturer has little profit margin, and even produces at a loss, and the production enthusiasm is not high.
2. Slow release of downstream demand and lack of confidence in the market.
In view of the end of last year, the shipping schedule has been affected by the epidemic city block down and really tight shipping schedule, we suggest maybe it’s better to stock up in advance in August and September to avoid the peak shipping period.
Because generally from October, overseas purchases will start stocking goods for Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year’s festivals, it will have a certain impact on the shipping space booking of heavy cargo of ferroalloys.
