Manganese phosphating is used as a treatment for rust and corrosion prevention on steel. Depending on their oxidation state, manganese ions have various colors and are used industrially as pigments.n 2+ often competes with Mg 2+ in biological systems. Manganese compounds where manganese is in oxidation state +7, which are restricted to the unstable oxide Mn 2 O 7 and compounds of the intensely purple permanganate anion MnO 4 â , are powerful oxidizing agents.
