Silicon Metal For Alloy Manufacturing

Silicon metal, also known as crystalline silicon or industrial silicon, is a crucial material in various industries. It is mainly obtained by smelting quartz and coke in an electric furnace. The main component of silicon metal is silicon, with its content typically around 98% (in recent years, materials with a silicon content of 99.99% are also classified as silicon metal). The remaining impurities are mainly iron, aluminum, and calcium.​

Physically, crystalline silicon metal has a dark blue color with a metallic luster. It is hard and brittle. As a semi - metal or metalloid, silicon has some properties of both metals and non - metals. For example, like water, it contracts in the liquid state and expands when solidifying, which is different from most metals. It also has relatively high melting and boiling points. When crystallized, it forms a diamond - cubic crystal structure. This unique atomic structure, with four valence electrons, enables silicon to bond easily with other elements, which is fundamental to its role as a semiconductor and its wide use in the electronics industry.
