The Properties and Effects of Manganese as an Alloying Element
The main product of the smelting process is a carbon-saturated ferroalloy consisting of 76 to 80% manganese, 12 to 15% of iron, 7.5% of carbon, and 1.2% of silicon. 70 to 80% of the manganese is recovered in the melt, and a slag consisting of 30 to 42% manganese is also achieved.
