The global Silicon Calcium Cored Wire market research report provides valuable insights into emerging trends, growth opportunities, and restraints. It will help companies create strategies to achieve competitive advantage and gain long-term success in the industry.
Alloy core wire can purify molten steel, change the inclusion form, improve the cast ability and reduce the cost. It is also suitable for continuous casting machines.
The core layer is made of calcium silicide or pure calcium. The coating is made of iron materials and the barrier section uses a low moisture-absorbing, non-polluting metal powder. The cored wire is produced by the core wire injection process, which involves a combination of welding processes and high temperature and pressure. The result is a weld deposit that is similar to solid wire, but with lower cost and easier clean up.
Cored wire is used in steelmaking to aid deoxidation and desulphurization, and to modify the shape of inclusions for better steel quality. It also reduces the clogging of caster nozzles and allows for faster and more efficient steel out-of-furnace treatment.
The global calcium cored wire market is expected to grow at a fast rate during the forecast period. This is primarily due to the increased demand for construction projects across emerging economies. Moreover, the growth in the steel industry is another factor driving the market.
Bozel produces a wide range of calcium silicon cored wire with different diameters and packages. Besides cored wire, it also supplies calcium silicide and other ferroalloys in various size and packaging options.
The core of calcium silicate is made of high-quality crushed calcined bauxite, which ensures the integrity of the alloy. The refractory sheath is made of cold-rolled steel strip, which needs to be tightly packed to prevent leakage of the core material. The sheath is pressed by professional cored wire machine, and the core material must be evenly filled to ensure that the cored wire is of good quality.
The calcium-silicon cored wire is an out-of-furnace refining technology, which can purify molten steel, change the shape of inclusions, improve castability and mechanical properties, and reduce the cost of smelting iron and steel. It can also significantly increase the yield of metals and rare earth elements, and reduce the amount of expensive additives needed for the smelting process.
Compared with the conventional cored wire, this new technology has a low failure rate and high forming speed. It can produce 60 meters of cored wire every minute, which is 3 to 5 times that of a common cored wire unit. In addition, the seamless solid calcium cored wire has good tightness and stability and is not prone to oxidation in water.
The steel sheath of the alloy cored wire is made from cold-rolled low-carbon steel strips. It is encapsulated in the pure metal calcium sheath and then wrapped with high-purity calcium silicate, which improves castability, modification of inclusions and the deoxidation of molten steel.
As a new treatment in secondary steelmaking, the alloy core wire can purify the molten steel, change the form of inclusions, promote the floating of inclusions, improve casting ability, and reduce the cost and consumption. It is an efficient and ultimate refining technology for the steelmaking and iron casting industry.
The calcium silicide cored wire is delivered to the customer in spools. The delivery time can vary depending on the supplier and product. It is also important to note that the cored wire must be protected from extreme conditions such as high temperatures and humidity.
The main raw material of cored wire, silicon calcium, is produced by a number of companies around the world. The global production of silicon-calcium alloys has grown significantly in recent years. This is due to rising demand for steel and metallurgical products. The market is dominated by a few large players, such as Bozel, LLC.
The cored wire is used in the treatment of metallurgical melts to carry out microalloying, modification and adjustment of the chemical composition of various grades of steel within narrow limits, as well as for improvement of its properties (property strength, plasticity, hardenability, etc.). It is a cost-effective and environmentally friendly technology of treatment of metallurgical melts.
