Ferroalloy

'''Ferroalloy''' refers to various alloys of iron with a high proportion of one or more other Chemical element|element, manganese or silicon for example. It is used in the production of steels and alloys as a raw material. The main ferroalloys are:
- FeMn - ferromanganese
- FeCr - ferrochromium
- FeMg - ferromagnesium
- FeMo - ferromolybdenum - min. 60% Mo, max. 1% Si, max. 0.5% Cu
- FeNi - ferronickel
- FeTi - ferrotitanium - 10..30-65..75% Ti, max. 5-6.5% Al, max. 1-4% Si
- FeV - ferrovanadium
- FeSi - ferrosilicon - 15-90% Si
- FeB - ferroboron - 12-20% of boron, max. 3% of silicon, max. 2% aluminium, max. 1% of carbon
- FeP - ferrophosphorus
- FeCe - ferrocerium
- FeNb - ferroniobium, also called ferrocolumbium
- FeW - ferrotungsten
- FeAl - ferroaluminum
- SiMn - silicomanganese
- FeSiMg – ferrosilicon magnesium (with Mg 4 to 25 %), also called nodulizer
