Uses:
-
Steel Production: Manganese is primarily used in the production of steel. It improves the strength, toughness, and hardness of steel, particularly in the form of ferromanganese alloy.
-
Aluminium Alloys: Manganese is also used in aluminium alloys to improve their corrosion resistance and mechanical properties.
-
Batteries: Manganese dioxide (MnO2) is a key component in dry cell batteries, such as alkaline batteries and zinc-carbon batteries.
-
Chemical Industry: Manganese compounds find applications in various chemical processes, such as the production of fertilizers, ceramics, pigments, and animal feed supplements.
-
Medical Uses: Manganese salts are used in some medical treatments, although this is less common compared to industrial uses.
-
Metallurgical Applications: Manganese metal and its compounds are used in metallurgical applications beyond steelmaking, such as in the production of non-ferrous alloys and as a deoxidizer in the smelting of certain metals.
-
Electronics: Manganese finds niche applications in electronic components and magnetic materials.
