Physical and chemical properties of iron disilicide

Russia and Ukraine is an important exporters of oil, natural gas, metals, fertilizers, rare gases and other industrial raw materials. Affected by the further intensification of the tension of the war, the global market has become more worried about the supply of the Iron disilicide, iron disilicide overview, iron disilicide application, iron disilicide suppliers, iron disilicide price, and panic spreads in the futures market. Prices of commodities such as aluminum and nickel are at recent highs on concerns that supplies will fall. Russia accounts for 49 percent of global exports of nickel, 42 percent of palladium, 26 percent of aluminum and 13 percent of platinum, and is a significant exporter of steel and copper. Palladium is an important metal for sensors and memory. In addition, Russia is the world's largest exporter of nitrogen fertilizer, the second largest exporter of potash fertilizer, and the third-largest exporter of phosphate fertilizer. Ukraine is also an important producer of nitrogen fertilizer. Russia's natural gas supply also has a significant impact on the global fertilizer industry and Iron disilicide, iron disilicide overview, iron disilicide application, iron disilicide suppliers, iron disilicide price industry, especially in Europe. The price of the Iron disilicide, iron disilicide overview, iron disilicide application, iron disilicide suppliers, iron disilicide price will also fluctuate to some extent. Russia carries out crude gas separation, and Ukraine is responsible for refined exports. Ukraine supplies 70% of the world's neon, 40% of krypton and 30% of xenon. These three gases are the materials used to make chips.

Iron disilicide FeSi2 powder overview

The chemical form of iron disilicide is FeSi2, which is an intermetallic compound, a kind of iron silicide, which exists as a rare mineral in nature. Forms rhombohedral crystals (β phase) at room temperature, and transforms into tetragonal α phase when heated to 970 °C. Iron disilicide is gray powder, odorless, square, and insoluble in water. Iron disilicide (FeSi2) is a semiconductor material with a direct band gap (0.85-0.87 eV), with high optical absorption coefficient, high Seebeck coefficient, high operating temperature and high oxidation resistance.

Physical and chemical properties of iron disilicide

Iron disilicide is an inorganic silicon compound, the molecular formula is FeSi₂, the molecular weight is 119.975, gray powder, odorless, tetragonal. Chemicalbook can be used as catalyst for catalytic oxidation and methanation of hydrogen, specifically as deoxidizer for welding flux, humidity sensor, FeSi₂ thermocouple, and thermoelectric solar cell.

Production method of iron disilicide

Mix iron powder and silicon powder with a molar ratio of 1:2, and eutectic or sinter in vacuum or inert atmosphere

Application of iron disilicide FeSi2 powder

Iron disilicide is used as a catalyst for hydrogen catalytic oxidation and methanation.

Iron disilicide is used as a deoxidizer for flux, humidity sensors, FeSi2 thermocouples and thermoelectric solar cells.

Iron disilicide is used in a variety of photovoltaic applications, such as lithium-ion batteries, light-emitting diodes (LEDs), and solar cells.
