Product type
Ferro manganese is an alloy of iron and manganese that is primarily used in steelmaking and foundry applications. It is produced by reducing manganese ore in the presence of iron, typically in an electric arc furnace. The addition of ferro manganese to molten steel enhances its strength, hardness, and wear resistance, making it an essential component in the production of various steel grades.
| Manganese content | 70% to 80% |
| Iron content | 15% to 30% |
| Silicon content | up to 2% |
| Phosphorus content | typically less than 0.1% |
| Sulfur content | typically less than 0.05% |
When selecting ferro manganese, buyers should consider the manganese and iron content, as these directly affect the alloy's performance in steel production. It is also important to specify the desired levels of impurities such as phosphorus and sulfur, as well as the required grades for specific applications. Quantities should be determined based on production needs, and buyers may also inquire about certifications or compliance with industry standards.
