Premium High-Purity Electrolytic Manganese Flake for Metal Production

Manganese metal flakes, which are primarily produced through an electrolysis process (making them "electrolytic manganese metal"), are a high-purity form of manganese (typically over 99.7%). Their primary use is as a crucial alloying agent in the production of various types of steel and aluminum.

• Steel Production (The largest use): Manganese is an essential deoxidizing and desulfurizing agent. It significantly improves the mechanical properties of steel:
  • Strength and Toughness: It increases the strength and toughness of steel.
  • Workability: It improves hardenability and rolling and forging qualities.
  • Wear Resistance: It greatly improves resistance to abrasion and impact. This is critical for steel used in mining equipment (e.g., rock crushers, bulldozer blades), railway tracks, and military armor.
  • A famous alloy is Manganese Steel (often containing 11-14% manganese), which is extremely hard and wear-resistant.
• Aluminum Alloys: In aluminum alloys (specifically the 3000 and 5000 series), the addition of manganese (typically 0.5% to 1.2%) improves strength, corrosion resistance, and formability. You'll find these alloys in beverage cans, car radiators, roofing, and cooking utensils.
• Specialty Alloys and Superalloys: Manganese is a key component in other non-ferrous alloys, such as:
  • Copper-Manganese-Nickel alloys for electrical resistance applications.
  • Manganese-based superalloys used in high-temperature applications, like components for jet engines.
• Electronics and Chemicals (Smaller volume, high value):
  • Electronics: High-purity manganese is used in the production of magnetic materials and as a cathode material in certain types of lithium-ion batteries (e.g., Lithium Manganese Oxide batteries).
  • Chemicals: It serves as a precursor for various manganese chemicals used in water treatment, fertilizers, animal feed, and pigments (e.g., potassium permanganate).
