Weekly social inventory of silicon metal continued to decline on a WoW basis

High Carbon Silicon (Si–C alloy) is an emerging alloy material widely used in the steelmaking and foundry industries. Among various grades, High Carbon Silicon 68 Si 18 C has gained attention for its excellent cost-performance ratio and stable alloying effects. This alloy typically contains 68% silicon, 18% carbon, and small amounts of iron, aluminum, and calcium. It combines the deoxidizing properties of silicon with the carbon-enhancing ability of graphite, making it an ideal substitute for ferrosilicon in steel production. In modern steel plants aiming to reduce costs without sacrificing quality, high carbon silicon has become a preferred choice in place of traditional FeSi 75 or FeSi 72.
