Applications of Manganese Oxide Powder

(Applications of Manganese Oxide Powder)

manganese oxide powder is a fine black to brown inorganic compound which occurs naturally as the mineral pyrolusite. It is a pigment for glass-making and also used as an additive in dry cell batteries, such as the alkaline battery and zinc-carbon battery.

Nanoparticles, Powder and Sintered Materials

American Elements specializes in producing ultra high purity Manganese Oxide with the smallest average grain sizes for use in semiconductor, chemical vapor deposition (CVD), and physical vapor deposition (PVD) applications. As a result of these processes, manganese oxide powders have very high surface areas and are useful in coatings, optical and electrical applications.

READE’s granulations include both coarse and low micron powders, with sizing up to -325 mesh available. These products are often utilized in sputtering targets, electrodes, and plasma displays.

Sputtering Targets and Electrodes

As a result of its very low melting point, manganese oxide is also a good choice for sputtering targets in electronics and other electronic based manufacturing applications. The low heat of evaporation provides a stable substrate for conducting various types of ion beams, electron beams and plasma to achieve the desired final product.

Electrochemical and Fuel Cell Applications

The unique reactivity of manganese oxide has led to its application as a catalyst, additive and sensor in a wide range of chemical and biotechnological processes and applications. Additionally, this nanoparticle material has received considerable attention as an electronic conductive cathode for lithium ion batteries and has potential applications in solid oxide fuel cells and oxygen generation systems.
