After completion of deoxidation and desulfurization, an ingot is produced by casting into an iron mold. After cooling the ingot, slag adhering to the ingot is removed.
Next, the Mn ingot was charged into a skull melting furnace, heated by reducing the pressure to 10 −5 Torr or less with a vacuum pump, and after maintaining the molten state for 10 to 60 minutes, the melting reaction was terminated to obtain a high purity Obtain Mn.

In particular, the presence of O and N in electronic devices using Mn forms oxides or nitrides, which not only deteriorates the properties of Mn itself, but also oxidizes in composites or alloyed materials with Mn. In some cases, the influence of the formation of nitrides or nitrides (deterioration of characteristics) or the influence of diffusion of O or N (deterioration of characteristics) between adjacent materials may occur. The presence of Mn, which can be reduced, is extremely effective.
