Medium Carbon Ferro Manganese (MC FeMn) is product of the blast furnace containing 70.0% to 85.0% of manganese with carbon content from 1.0% max to 2.0% max. It is used as a de-oxidizer for manufacturing of 18-8 Austenitic non-magnetic stainless steel for the introduction of manganese into steel without increasing the carbon content. By adding the manganese as MC FeMn instead of HC FeMn, approximately 82% to 95% less carbon is added to the steel. MC FeMn is also used for producing E6013 electrodes and in casting industries.
Application
1. Mainly used as alloy additives and deoxidizer in steelmaking.
2. Used as alloy agent ,widely applied to be widely applied to alloy steel, such as structural steel, tool steel, stainless and heat-resistant steel and abrasion-resistant steel.
3. It also has the performance that it can desulfurize and decrease the harmfulness of sulfur. So when we make steel and cast iron, we always need certain account of manganese.
