Ferrochrome
High carbon ferrochrome is an
intermediate product and is used as a
feed material in the production of
value-added materials such as
stainless steel.
High carbon ferrochrome is primarily
used in the production of stainless
steel. More than 90% of high carbon
ferrochrome is used in the production
of stainless steel (International
Chromium Development Association
[ICDA]). The majority of the balance is
used in the manufacturing of special
steels
