Mangán – Wikipédia

Manganese is a chemical element with the symbol Mn and a proton number of 25. It is a metallic element found in the periodic table of elements. Manganese has a wide range of uses in various industries and processes:

 

Steel industry: Manganese is often added to steel as an alloy to increase its hardness, strength and corrosion resistance. This creates an "alloy steel" with better mechanical properties.

Batteries: In lead-acid batteries, manganese oxide is used as the positive electrode, which helps to increase the capacity and durability of the battery.

Glass and Ceramic Manufacturing: Manganese oxides are often added to glass and ceramics to achieve the desired color and tints.

Catalyst: In some catalytic reactions, manganese compounds are used as catalysts.

Production of chemical compounds: Manganese is used in the production of various chemical compounds such as oxides, sulphides and salt compounds.

Fertilizer production: Manganese can be used in the form of fertilizer to replenish manganese in the soil and promote plant growth.

Health Care: Manganese is an essential trace element for the human body and plays an important role in various biological processes. It can be a part of food supplements and medicinal products.

Dyeing: Manganese compounds are used to dye glass, ceramics, paint and textile dyes.

Electronics: Some electrical circuit components may contain manganese materials.

These are just a few examples of the use of manganese. Its diverse properties and chemical properties make it an important element in many industrial and manufacturing processes.
