Factory Direct Sell 99.7 % Electrolytic Manganese Metal Flakes for Steelmaking

Electrolytic Manganese Metal (EMM) is a high-purity form of manganese (>99.7%) produced through an electrolysis process. Its exceptional purity makes it unsuitable for bulk, low-grade steelmaking but essential for specialized, high-performance applications where impurities would cause defects.

Its primary uses are:

• High-Strength and Specialty Steel Alloys: This is a major application. EMM is added to create steels with very specific, enhanced properties:
  • Austenitic Stainless Steels: Manganese is used to stabilize the austenitic structure, often as a partial substitute for nickel, improving durability and corrosion resistance.
  • Advanced High-Strength Steel (AHSS): Used in modern automotive manufacturing to make car bodies lighter yet stronger, improving fuel efficiency and safety.
  • Full Alloy Steels: For critical components in machinery, military armor, and mining equipment that require extreme abrasion resistance and toughness.
• Aluminum Alloys: The addition of high-purity EMM (typically 0.5% to 1.2%) to aluminum creates alloys (e.g., the 3000 and 5000 series) that are stronger, more corrosion-resistant, and more workable than pure aluminum. These are used in:
  • Beverage cans
  • Automotive parts (radiators, heat exchangers)
  • Building and construction (roofing, siding)
  • Cookware
• Lithium-Ion Batteries (A rapidly growing use): This is one of the most significant modern applications. EMM is a critical precursor for the synthesis of cathode materials, including:
  • Lithium Manganese Oxide (LMO)
  • Lithium Nickel Manganese Cobalt Oxide (NMC) (e.g., NMC 811, 622, 532)
  • Lithium Manganese Iron Phosphate (LMFP), a next-generation chemistry that boosts the energy density of standard LFP batteries.
  The ultra-high purity of EMM is essential for battery performance, longevity, and safety.
• Other Niche Applications:
  • Copper and Nickel Alloys: Used to create alloys with high electrical resistance and corrosion resistance.
  • High-Purity Manganese Chemicals: Serves as a starting point for manufacturing chemicals like potassium permanganate (for water treatment) and other specialty compounds.
  • Electronics: Used in the production of certain magnetic materials and components.
