Natural properties: natural blocks, the weight of each block shall not be greater than 15kg, and the weight of ferrochromium blocks with dimensions less than 20*20mm shall not exceed 5% of the total weight of ferrochromium.
Brand: high chromium 50% chromium content as the benchmark assessment unit.
Matters needing attention: material and particle size (based on 50% chromium content of ferrochrome).
Uses: The corrosion resistance of stainless steel mainly comes from chromium. Experiments show that the corrosion resistance of steel will be greatly improved only when the chromium content exceeds 12%, so the chromium content in stainless steel is generally not lower than 12%. Therefore, the supply and demand of chromite is closely related to that of stainless steel market.
