Pure metals are elemental metal materials \u2014 silicon metal and magnesium metal ingot \u2014 supplied at high purity for use as alloying inputs, nodularisation agents, and direct additions in foundry and metallurgical processes. Unlike ferro alloys, which are iron-based carrier alloys, pure metals introduce the target element with minimal dilution, making them the preferred choice where the iron content of a ferro alloy addition is undesirable.\n\n<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

CFC Egypt's Trading Division sources silicon metal and magnesium metal ingot (99.9% Mg) for supply to aluminium foundries, aluminium casthouses, iron foundries, and industrial processors across Egypt and the MENA region. Silicon metal is the primary silicon source for Al-Si alloy production; magnesium metal ingot serves as the raw material for FeSiMg noduliser manufacture and as a direct addition agent in ductile iron treatment. Both metals are traded materials \u2014 supplied with specification documentation and supported by technical application guidance.\n\n<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Aluminium Alloy Production\n<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Silicon metal is charged directly into aluminium melting furnaces to raise the silicon content of the melt to the target alloy composition. Al-Si casting alloys contain 5\u201313% Si; silicon metal (rather than FeSi) is used because the iron present in FeSi would reduce electrical conductivity and increase the formation of hard, brittle iron-bearing intermetallics in aluminium alloys.\n\n<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Magnesium metal ingot is the primary raw material used by FeSiMg noduliser manufacturers.

Pure magnesium ingot is the base metal for magnesium alloy die casting \u2014 used in automotive and electronics applications where the high strength-to-weight ratio of magnesium alloys (such as AZ91 and AM60) provides significant weight savings. Magnesium die casting requires specialist equipment and handling procedures due to the fire risk associated with molten magnesium.\n\n<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
