Ferro Manganese

Description:

Ferro Manganese has a manganese content between 65-90%. It is use in the steelmaking process as a deoxidant and alloying addition. It is also use for desulphurization minimizing the formation of iron sulphides which will melt during rolling, causing surface cracks.

Application:

• In steelmaking, Ferrous Manganese is considered as a crucial factor to improve the quality of steel. It plays a key role as a deoxidizer and sulfur balancing material. As a low cost and outstanding technical benefit, nearly 90% of this element added to steel industry so far.
• In Aluminium alloy, Ferrous Manganese is taking advantage in improving corrosion resistance.
• This powerful material also added into copper alloy with a little amount (0.1-0.3%) to generate deoxidization process, which help enhance the physical strength of the alloy.
• Some applications of Ferrous Manganese can be used in battery industry.
