Product Description

Manganese(II) sulfate is an inorganic manganese salt commonly supplied as a pale pink crystalline solid in its hydrated forms or as a white crystalline solid in the anhydrous form. It is highly soluble in water and serves as an important source of manganese ions for a wide range of laboratory, industrial, agricultural, and chemical manufacturing applications.

The compound exists in several hydrated forms, including monohydrate, tetrahydrate, pentahydrate, and heptahydrate, all of which readily dissolve in aqueous systems. Ausamics Manganese(II) Sulfate is supplied under controlled conditions to ensure consistent quality and reliable performance across applications.
