Manganese Steel Scrap
Discarded fragments of high-manganese steel (Hadfield steel) from worn mining and crushing equipment, containing 11-14% manganese. These are waste and scrap of manganese articles because manganese is the predominant metal by weight, and the fragments are not usable as equipment.

Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If the scrap is primarily iron with manganese as an alloying element
Waste and scrap of iron or steel is classified in Chapter 72 when iron predominates by weight.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Provide a certificate of analysis confirming manganese content of 11-14% and that it predominates by weight over other metals
• Describe the material as worn equipment fragments to support the waste classification
• Ensure the material is not usable as mining or crushing equipment

Battery-Grade Manganese Flakes 99.6%
Ultra-pure manganese flakes at 99.6% purity, used specifically in lithium-manganese oxide battery cathodes. These are unwrought manganese because they are not worked beyond the flake form and meet the purity threshold for unwrought manganese.
Electrolytic Manganese Flakes 99.7%
Manganese flakes produced via electrolytic process, with 99.7% purity, ideal for battery cathode production and specialty alloys. These are unwrought manganese because they are in flake form and meet the purity threshold for unwrought manganese.
Electrolytic Manganese Residue Scrap
Metal-rich residues recovered from the anodes used in electrolytic manganese metal production. These residues are considered waste and scrap of manganese because they are metal goods definitely not usable as such due to breakage or wear, and manganese is the predominant metal by weight.
Ferromanganese Cored Wire Scrap
Discarded remnants and offcuts of cored wire used for ferromanganese injection in steelmaking. These are waste and scrap of manganese articles because the manganese content predominates by weight over other metals, and the material is no longer usable in its original form.
High-Purity Manganese Flakes 99.8%
Manganese flakes containing at least 99.5% manganese by weight, typically used in the production of high-performance steel alloys and non-ferrous metals. These are unwrought manganese because they are in flake form and meet the purity threshold.
Manganese Battery Scrap
Shredded waste from alkaline batteries containing manganese dioxide cathodes, processed for metal recovery. This material is classified as waste and scrap of manganese because manganese is the predominant metal by weight, and the shredded batteries are not usable as batteries.
