Application

Powder metallurgy: is one of the most important application areas of iron powder. By mixing iron powder with other metal powder or additives, after pressing, sintering and other processes, various mechanical parts can be manufactured, such as gears, bearings, cams and so on.

Magnetic materials: Used to manufacture soft magnetic materials, such as magnetic core, magnetic powder clutch, etc. These magnetic materials are widely used in electronic, electrical and other fields.

Chemical: In chemical production, iron powder can be used as a catalyst, such as in ammonia synthesis, petroleum hydrogenation and other reactions play an important role.In addition, iron powder can also be used for sewage treatment, through the chemical reaction with harmful substances in sewage, to achieve the purpose of purifying water quality.

Food: In the food industry, iron powder can be added to food as a nutritional booster for the prevention and treatment of iron deficiency anemia.

Others: Iron powder is also used in fireworks to create a bright Mars effect. In the manufacture of electrode, iron powder can be used as an additive to improve the welding performance of electrode.
