Elektrolytmangan

Mn ≥ 99.7%

Electrolytic manganese metal is a carbon-free Mn unit produced by electrowinning, deposited as brittle cathode flakes at Mn ≥ 99.7%. Because manganese enters liquid steel as a near-pure element rather than as an Fe-Mn alloy, it raises the Mn target without dragging in carbon — the C ≤ 0.03% ceiling lets metallurgists hit Mn aim in grades where high-carbon ferromanganese would breach the carbon or phosphorus spec. Manganese supplements deoxidation and fixes residual sulfur as MnS, displacing low-melting FeS films that cause hot-shortness, so castability and hot ductility improve. As an austenite stabilizer it also strengthens work-hardening response. Primary uses: stainless steel, special and low-C alloy steels, aluminum alloy additions, and battery-grade MnSO₄ feedstock. Additions are typically dosed from tenths of a percent up to a few wt% against ladle analysis. Low Si ≤ 0.01%, Se ≤ 0.02%, S ≤ 0.05%, and Fe ≤ 0.2% keep residuals controlled for clean-steel and chemical routes. Supplied with COA and MTC, multi-regional sourcing, CIF Marmara or Gebze bonded stock, 20 MT FCL / 5 MT LCL. Send grade and tonnage for an RFQ.
