Anhydrous manganese borate synthesis and characterization using the raw materials of mangan sulfate monohydrate and boric acid by the combine method of liquid-state and solid-state

Boron and its compounds form an important class of chemical substances of great scientific, industrial and commercial importance, that have more than 500 usage areas due to their unique physicochemical properties. The most important boron reserves of the world are located in Turkey, USA, Russia and South America. The most important boron reserves in Turkey are found in Western Anatolia, Eskisehir-Kirka, Kutahya-Emet, Bursa-Kestelek and Balikesir-Bigadic regions. Manganese borate which is sub–kind of boron, is reddish-white powder used in the production of dry oils and varnishes that is insoluble in water and organic. MnB407 is paramagnetic at room temperature and has a formula weight of 210.21 g/mole. Manganese borate synthesis generally takes place at high temperatures, high pressures and long reaction times. The manganese borate compounds are obtained as crystalline. In this study, the combine of hydrothermal, solid-state reaction of manganese borates were studied using manganese sulfate monohydrate (MnSO4·H2O), sodium hydroxide (NaOH), and boric acid (H3BO3) raw materials. From the experimental studies, "01-070-2045" XRD pdf coded manganese borate is produced with the combine of hydrothermal, solid-state reaction. In both of these methods, characterization analyses, which are FT-IR, Raman and SEM, are applied after the production process. At the end of the characterization stage, similar spectrums are obtained.
