Ferroalloy

Ferroalloys are iron-based alloys (with iron content below 50%) that include one or more additional metals, used primarily in producing alloy steels. Common types include ferromanganese, ferrochromium, and ferrosilicon. These alloys are added to molten steel to achieve specific properties and compositions needed for various steel types, like stainless and tool steels. For a full explanation, including details on how they impact steel properties, you can refer to articles on sites like Britannica.
