Manganese sulfate CAS 7785-87-7

What is of Manganese sulfate CAS 7785-87-7?

Manganese sulfate (MnSO₄) is a vital inorganic compound widely used in agriculture to remediate manganese-deficient soils, in animal feed, and as a raw material for batteries and industrial processes. It is a pale pink, water-soluble solid that should not be confused with magnesium sulfate (Epsom salts).

Specification

Application Scenarios:

Agricultural Grade

1. Prevention and Control of Plant Yellowing and Oat Gray Spot Disease: Manganese is an essential element for plant photosynthesis (photolysis of water) and chlorophyll synthesis, maintaining chloroplast structure. Soybeans, wheat, corn, cotton, and citrus fruits are extremely sensitive to manganese. When manganese is deficient, chlorosis occurs between the veins of older leaves, but the veins remain green; in severe cases, brown spots appear. Applying agricultural-grade manganese sulfate as a base fertilizer, top dressing, or foliar fertilizer can rapidly restore photosynthesis and significantly improve crop yield.

2. Additive in High-Grade Water-Soluble Fertilizers and Compound Fertilizers: As a core ingredient, it is widely mixed into liquid fertilizers and soilless cultivation nutrient solutions.

Feed Grade

1. Micronutrient Fortification in Complete Feeds for Poultry, Livestock, and Aquatic Animals: Manganese participates in the development of animal bones, connective tissue, and reproductive systems. Feed-grade manganese sulfate monohydrate is widely added to compound feeds for pigs, chickens, cattle, sheep, and fish and shrimp.

2. Prevention and Treatment of "Short and Thick Bone Syndrome" and "Slippery Tendon Syndrome" in Poultry: Severe manganese deficiency in chicks, ducks, and other poultry can lead to stunted cartilage development, manifesting as short and thick leg bones, swollen joints, tendon loss, and ultimately, inability to stand. Adding feed-grade manganese sulfate is a rigid requirement for large-scale chicken farms to maintain egg production and prevent leg diseases in broilers.

Industrial Grade

1. Cathode Material for New Energy Power Batteries: High-purity electronic-grade manganese sulfate monohydrate is a crucial precursor material for manufacturing ternary lithium batteries (lithium nickel cobalt manganese oxide, NCM), lithium manganese iron phosphate (LMFP), and next-generation sodium-ion batteries (layered oxide/Prussian blue). It provides a stable manganese source, directly determining the battery's energy density, cycle life, and safety stability.

2. Fine Chemical Catalyst (Coating Catalysis): Used as a catalyst for fatty acid oxidation in chemical synthesis; used as a highly efficient drying agent in the paint and ink industry to accelerate the hardening and drying of paint films.

3. Papermaking and Textile Printing & Dyeing: Used as an auxiliary catalyst in lignin bleaching in the papermaking industry; used as a dyeing auxiliary for vat dyes in the textile industry.

Food Grade:

Infant Formula and Dietary Supplements: Manganese deficiency in infants can lead to stunted bone growth and development. Food-grade manganese sulfate is widely added to infant formula, rice cereal, multivitamin and mineral supplements for pregnant women, and sports nutrition solid beverages as a legally permitted nutritional fortifier.
