Silicon Metal
ANSA Silicon will be producing following grade of Silicon Metal
It will also produce other grades as per customer requirements from time to time. Customers are welcome to discuss their specific requirements by contacting ANSA Silicon or its representative.
Note: Fines (-10mm) also will be available for sale.
Packing of Silicon Metal
Packing will be done in 1 MT jumbo bags with double wall woven polypropylene. Bags are lifted by four lifting loops. An optional discharge spout at the bottom of the bag can be arranged as per customer request.
- Bags are available with pallets (two bags per pallet) on request of the customer.
- All bags weights are guaranteed to an accuracy of 1%.
- Also ANSA Silicon can provide 50/10 kg bags for packing as an option to customers.
Uses of Silicon Metal
The use of Silicon Metal in different fields is presented below.
ALUMINIUM
The ability of silicon to improve the strength of aluminium alloys has far reaching consequences for the transport industry. Aluminium alloys are light, yet strong and replace heavier cast iron components. Car wheels, cylinder heads and engine blocks are routinely seen made from aluminium alloys. Weight reduction in automobiles decreases fuel consumption and fuel emissions which in turn reduces greenhouse gas emissions and plays a role in conserving our fossil fuels.
SILICONES
Silicon based polymers, known as silicones, provide an alternative to environmentally harmful hydrocarbon based products. We unknowingly use these polymers in everyday items from lubricants, greases and resins to skin and hair car products, bakeware, antiperspirants, polishes, anti foam agents and fabric softeners.
SILICON CHIPS
(Semi-conductor)
The electronic products that we rely on every day cannot operate without semi-conductor chips made from silicon.
SOLAR ENERGY
Silicon plays an important role in the photovoltaic industries where solar panels, made from silicon, use the sun’s rays to generate space and water heating, produce domestic and industrial electricity and power remote telecommunications, weather and irrigation facilities.
