Calcium carbide
Calcium carbide (carbonaceous calcium, calcium acetylenide) - CaC2 is a pure white crystalline substance. Compound of calcium with carbon.
Calcium carbide is produced by fusing carbonite and quicklime in electric furnaces. Molten calcium carbide releases from the furnace into special molds, where it hard. Harden calcium carbide crushes and sorts into of a certain size pieces.
Technical calcium carbide is a hard-crystalline substance. Calcium carbide is a dark gray or brown solid in appearance. Depending on the purity it gives a gray crystalline fracture with different shades. Calcium carbide greedily absorbs water., calcium carbide decomposes with a violent release of acetylene and a large amount of heat interacting with water, even cold. Decomposition of calcium carbide also occurs under the influence of atmospheric moisture.
FerroBoron
One of the main applications of ferrobor is the production of hard metals. This includes tools such as drills, cutting blades and saws. These tools require strong and durable materials to withstand the constant wear and tear to which they are subjected. Ferro Boron provides the necessary strength and resistance to wear and corrosion to ensure that these tools last as long as possible.
Ferrobor is also used in the production of magnets. This is due to the magnetic properties of ferroboron, which make it an excellent material for creating strong and reliable magnets. These magnets are used in a variety of applications, including electronics, medical equipment, and transportation.
The properties of ferroboron have the ability to increase the strength and hardness of other materials when used as an additive. This makes it an excellent material for hardening steel and other alloys. It also helps increase the heat resistance of these materials, making them more resistant to wear at high temperatures.
Silicon carbide
Silicon carbide (carborundum) is a binary inorganic chemical compound of silicon with carbon.
The chemical formula is SiC. It occurs naturally in the form of an extremely rare mineral, moissanite. Silicon carbide powder was obtained in 1893. It is used as an abrasive, semiconductor, for imitating diamond inserts in jewelry.
Boron carbide
Boron carbide is a binary compound of boron with carbon, having the formula B4C (B12C3)., Black crystals in usual conditions. First obtained in 1893 by A. Moissant by reduction of boron oxide B2O3 with carbon at 2000 ° C.
Ferroalloys
Ferroalloys are alloys of iron with other elements (Cr, Si, Mn, Ti, etc.), used mainly for deoxidation and alloying of steel (for example, ferrochrome, ferrosilicon). Ferroalloys conventionally also include some alloys containing iron only as inclusions (silicocalcium, silicomanganese, etc.), and some metals and non-metals (Mn, Cr, Si) with a minimum content of inclusions.
They are obtained from ores or concentrates in electric furnaces or smelting mines (forges) and are used for deoxidation and alloying of iron-carbon alloys.
Iron dissolves the main element in smelting reduction, reduces its activity, lowers the melting point of the alloy.
When alloying and deoxidizing steel and alloys, the use of an alloying element in the form of a ferroalloy increases its absorption by the melt and reduces waste.
Ferroalloys are divided to the so-called "large" and "small" by the volume of production. Large ferroalloys are silicon, manganese, chromium. Small ferroalloys are ferro-tungsten, ferromolybdenum, ferrovanadium, alloys of alkaline-earth metals, ferroniobium, ferrotitanium and titanium-containing alloys, ferroboron, ferroboron and master alloys with boron, alloys with aluminum, alloys with rare earth metals, ferrosilicon, zirconium ferrosilicon, ferro aluminous zirconium, ferronickel and ferro cobalt.
