Chromium

Chromium and Its Uses

Chromium, which has been mined since the early years of the mining industry in Turkey, plays a significant role in steel hardening and the production of stainless steel, bringing our country to the third position globally.

With its resistance to climatic and environmental conditions, chromium has become a driving force in technological development across many sectors, from industry to defense, transportation to communication.

Chromium enhances the brightness and durability of other metals when used in alloys, and its high melting point makes it essential for extending the lifespan of residential and transportation vehicles. This property brings substantial benefits in health, economy, and sustainable technology.

Applications of Chromium

Chromium imparts hardness to metals, providing long-lasting use in harsh climates and environments. Its resistance to heat and electricity, oxidation resistance, and its use as a raw material for paints increase its value in industry.

At Global Mining, we understand the importance of chromium in human life and direct our efforts with the awareness of ensuring its sustainability in nature.

Chromium in Refractory Industry

Chromium is a key material in the production of heat-resistant firebricks, used in chromium-magnesite bricks and electric heater insulation.

Chromium in Chemical Industry

Chromium oxide, sodium dichromate, and similar components are used in paint pigments, polishing chemicals, leather tanning, metalworking, ceramics, and canned food packaging.

Additionally, it plays a crucial role in environmental applications such as drilling mud and water treatment.

Chromium in Metallurgical Industry

Chromium contributes significantly to defense and transportation industries by being used in the production of armored vehicles, submarines, aircraft, and similar vehicles. Chromium-based materials created with iron and steel alloys enhance durability.
