overview of manganese sulphate


Manganese sulfate monohydrate is a pink deliquescent solid.
It is one of the most commonly used manganese salts, but its use is limited due to its hygroscopy. It is the major product formed when a solution of potassium permanganate in water acidified with sulfuric acid is reduced.

(inorganic chemistry) MnSO4·4H2O Water-soluble, translucent, efflorescent rose-red prisms;
melts at 30°C; used in medicine, textile printing, and ceramics, as a fungicide and fertilizer, and in paint manufacture. Also known as manganese sulfate.

Manganese, supplied as manganese sulphate, is used to alleviate Mn deficiencies which are most common in Northland & on the West Coast of the South Island & in peat soils. Manganese sulphate is also applied to soils or as a foliar application for cereal production where a history of Mn deficiency exists. If applied as a foliar, ensure Manganese Sulphate Soluble is requested.

Preventive Measures

Accidental Release Measures
Ventilate area of leak or spill. Keep unnecessary and unprotected people away from area of spill. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment as specified in Section 8. Spills: Pick up and place in a suitable container for reclamation or disposal, using a method that does not generate dust.
