Manganese is a chemical element with the symbol Mn and atomic number 25. It is a hard, brittle, silvery metal, often found in minerals in combination with iron.
Uses
Manganese is a transition metal with a multifaceted array of industrial alloy uses, particularly in stainless steels. It improves strength, workability, and resistance to wear.
Manganese oxide is used as an oxidising agent; as a rubber additive; and in glass making, fertilizers, and ceramics. Manganese sulfate can be used as a fungicide.
