🟢Silicon is a lustrous black solid that looks like a metal, and it is sold commercially as "Silicon Metal". Silicon is used when alloyed with various metals. The presence of silicon improves the metal's castability with improved fills, acts as a deoxidizer, and provides durability.

🟢Silicon is one of a few elements to be useful additions for modifying carat gold alloys without detrimentally changing other relevant properties (Zinc, Silicon, Iridium, Cobalt).

🟢In alloying the metal with Zinc, the additive of Silicon, improves castings, with Fills and Finish by reducing tension and improving the castings with a brighter surface and color.
