Silicon
metal powders are specifically dedicated to advance niche
applications, which require low content of foreign elements
and unique particle size distribution.
Very
fine particle content is extremely low due to the applied
process technology in grinding and sieving, as well is
the contamination with other materials.
Applications:
Raw
materials in chemical synthesis
- of chlorosilanes
- of organochlorosilanes
- of alkoxysilanes
Pigments in paints
Metallurgical industry
Refractories
High silicon containing light alloy or ceramic parts
Special light alloy soldering techniques
