Product Name: | Ferric silicon |
CAS Registry Number: | 8049-17-0 |
Synonyms: | Ferric Silicon;Ferrosilicon; Ferro Silicon;Ferric silicon; |
Molecular Formula: | FeSi2 |
Molecular Weight: | 112.01 |
Density: | 4,75 g/cm3 |
Melting Point: | 1360ºC |
Safety Statements: | Moderate inhalation hazard. Low skin toxicity. Reaction with moisture releases hydrogen and acetylene gases, which then ignite; impurities in the alloy may liberate such poisonous and reactive gases as phosphine and arsine. Dry mixtures with sodium hydroxide react incandescently when water is added. Reaction with acid, acid fumes, or oxidizing materials can emit toxic fumes. Reaction hazards increase with decreasing particle size. |
