CaSi CaSi is a universal desoxidising and desulphurising agent used for Sabine Disterer
the manufacture of killed plain Carbon and high grade steels. It is Tel: +49 (0)86 34 / 62720-42
used either as a substitute for Aluminium or as a supplement when Fax: +49 (0)86 34 / 62720-
the use of Aluminium poses analytical problems ( e.g. coarse grain 45
steels). In combination with Aluminium, it is used in cases where disterer@skw-steel.com
very high demands are made on the degree of purity and the
surface quality of the steel. By injection of powdered CaSi into the
ladle a high degree of cleanliness can be attained, which was
previously only possible with special metallurgical processes.
Calcium Carbide is used in the steel industry in large quantities for Sandra Dietel
the desulphurisation of hot metal. There is however also a range of Tel: +49 (0)86 34 / 62720-49
Carbide mix applications within the secondary steel metallurgy, e.g. deoxidation Fax: +49 (0)86 34 / 62720-
at converter tapping, slag killing, foam slag in the ladle furnace, 45

also used as a slag reducing agent in high-alloy steels.
