Manganese dioxide is commonly used in the production of batteries, matches, fireworks, porcelain, glass-bonding materials and amethyst glass, as the starting material for production of other manganese compounds, and as an oxidising agent. Manganese chloride is used as a precursor for other manganese compounds, as a catalyst in the chlorination of organic compounds, as dietary supplement/food additive, in animal feed to supply essential trace minerals, in paint driers, fertilisers, in dyeing, disinfecting, purifying natural gas, and in dry-cell batteries. Manganese sulfate is used in glazes, varnishes, ceramics, dyeing, fertilisers, fungicides, and ore flotation. It is also used in medicines and as a nutritional supplement. Potassium permanganate is used as an oxidising agent, a disinfectant, as an anti-algal agent, in metal cleaning, in tanning, bleaching, and as a preservative for fresh flowers and fruits. Manganese gluconate is used as a feed additive, food additive, and dietary supplement. Manganese oxide is used in textile printing, ceramics, paints, coloured glass, animal feeds, fertilisers, and in welding. It is used as a catalyst in the manufacture of allyl alcohol, as food additive and a dietary supplement. Manganese nitrate is used as a colour agent in porcelain and ceramic manufacture, as a catalyst, and in the production of manganese dioxide. Manganese acetate is used in textile dyeing, fertilisers, food packaging, feed additives, and in manufacturing paints and varnishes. Manganese carbonate is used as a pigment, drier for varnishes, in medications, and as a plant nutrient. It is used in the manufacturing of manganese salts, pharmaceuticals, animal feeds, and ceramics. [ https://www.dcceew.gov.au/environment/protection/npi/substances/fact-sheets/manganese-compounds ]
