Manganese nitrate

Manganese nitrate (CAS 10377-66-9) is an inorganic manganese salt used as a precursor and catalyst in industrial processes.

Where is Manganese nitrate used?

• Textile dyeing and finishing: oxidation catalyst for manganese-based colorants and fixing certain dye systems onto fabric
• Leather and paper: component in tanning and bleaching
• Agriculture: micronutrient source in fertilizer formulations for manganese-deficient soils, particularly crops sensitive to trace element imbalances
• Water treatment: supports oxidative removal of iron and manganese from potable and process water streams
• It delivers a soluble, reactive source of manganese where controlled deposition or oxidation chemistry is required.

Good to know: Purity specifications and solution concentration should be confirmed against application requirements, as catalyst and agricultural uses may carry different acceptance criteria.

Commercial specifications

• Aqueous solution, most commonly at 50% concentration
• Anhydrous or tetrahydrate solid form
