Ferromanganese-silicon
1 Scope
This standard specifies the technical requirements, test methods, inspection rules, packaging, storage, transportation, marking and quality certification of ferromanganese-silicon.
This standard is applicable to ferromanganese-silicon used as alloying agent, composite deoxidizer and desulfurizer supplied for steelmaking and foundry use, and as reducing agent in smelting medium and low carbon ferromanganese.
