High-purity pig iron is a crucial basic raw material in the steel industry. Compared with ordinary pig iron, its most prominent feature is the extremely low impurity content. In particular, harmful impurities such as sulfur and phosphorus are strictly controlled at a very low level.


This extremely low impurity content endows ultra-pure pig iron with excellent mechanical properties. In practical applications, when used in casting, it can produce castings with higher dimensional accuracy and better surface quality, greatly reducing the scrap rate. Moreover, with its good toughness and ductility, the steel processed from high-purity pig iron shines in multiple fields. For example, in the construction field, it can help produce high-strength and lightweight construction steel, meeting the requirements of green buildings for reducing self-weight, reducing resource consumption and improving seismic performance; in the machinery manufacturing and automotive industries, it can provide a solid guarantee for the production of high-strength and high-reliability components; in high-end manufacturing industries such as aerospace, marine engineering and high-end equipment manufacturing, the high-strength, fatigue resistance, high temperature resistance and corrosion resistance of its steel are more in line with the almost demanding quality requirements of these industries for components. For example, key components of aircraft engines and structural parts of deep-sea exploration equipment cannot do without high-purity pig iron-derived materials.


All in all, High-grade pig iron with its unique performance advantages, high-purity pig iron has become an indispensable key material in many fields of modern industry, supporting the development of various industries to a higher level.
