Overview

Silico manganese is a ferroalloy that contains 60-68% manganese, 14-21% silicon, and 5-2.5% iron. It is produced by smelting quartz, coke, and carbon from slightly elevated ferromanganese or manganese ore in an immersed electric arc furnace. Silico manganese is a key ingredient in steel production, and it is used to improve the strength, ductility, and corrosion resistance of steel. It is also used in refining, deoxidizing, modification, and control of nonmetallic inclusions.

The global silico manganese market is expected to grow from USD 16.69 billion in 2023 to USD 24.66 billion by 2032, at a CAGR of 5%. The growth of the market is driven by the rising demand for steel products in the construction, infrastructure, and automotive industries.
