Silicon Metal Granules
Silicon metal Granules are a by-product obtained during the production of standard silicon metal grades (such as 553, 441, 3303, etc.). Due to slight deviations in chemical composition or appearance, it does not meet the requirements of standard grades, but it still contains a high percentage of silicon and is widely used in various industries as a cost-effective substitute.

Introduction
Silicon metal Granules are a by-product obtained during the production of standard silicon metal grades (such as 553, 441, 3303, etc.). Due to slight deviations in chemical composition or appearance, it does not meet the requirements of standard grades, but it still contains a high percentage of silicon and is widely used in various industries as a cost-effective substitute.
Our Silicon Metal Granules are produced during the crushing and screening of high-purity Silicon Metal lumps (mainly grades 553 and 441). With uniform size and stable chemical composition, the granules are carefully selected to ensure consistent quality.
Typical Specifications (variable depending on batches)
- Si: 83% – 97%, 65%-77%.
- Fe, Al, Ca: higher than standard grades
- Form: blocks, lumps, or crushed particles
Key Features
- Lower cost compared with standard silicon metal
- Good source of silicon content for metallurgy and foundry use
- Flexible applications where strict chemical requirements are not necessary
Applications
Ferroalloy production
As a reducing agent and raw material
Steelmaking
As a deoxidizer substitute for standard silicon metal
Foundry industry
For cast iron inoculation and alloying
Chemical industry
As raw material for certain non-critical processes
Silicon metal granules provide an economic alternative for industries that require silicon content but can accept higher levels of impurities compared to standard silicon metal grades.
