Manganese(III) oxide a structure related to the spinel structure of MnO where the oxide ions are cubic close packed. This is similar to the relationship between γ-FeO and FeO. γ-MnO is ferrimagnetic with a Néel temperature of 39 K. Manganese(III) oxide Manganese(III) oxide is a chemical compound with the formula MnO. Heating MnO in air at below 800 °C produces α-MnO (higher temperatures produce MnO). γ-MnO can be produced by oxidation followed by dehydration of manganese(II) hydroxide. Many preparations of nano-crystalline MnO have been reported, for example syntheses involving oxidation of Mn salts or reduction of MnO. Manganese (III) oxide is formed
Manganese dioxide Otherwise, the applications of are numerous, being applicable to many kinds of reactions including amine oxidation, aromatization, oxidative coupling, and thiol oxidation. Chronic exposures to contaminated air with manganese dioxide particles can cause manganism. is classed as a cumulative neurotoxin according to the MSDS for Manganese Dioxide. Manganese dioxide Manganese(IV) oxide is the inorganic compound with the formula . This blackish or brown solid occurs naturally as the mineral pyrolusite, which is the main ore of manganese and a component of manganese nodules. The principal use for is for dry-cell batteries, such as the alkaline battery and the zinc-carbon battery.
