1.High stability
As a hydroxychloride-containing substance, it is not easy to absorb moisture and clump, and is more stable in feeds with high temperatures, high humidity or containing vitamins and other active substances
2. High-efficiency manganese source with higher bioavailability
Basic manganese chloride has a stable structure and moderate release rate of manganese ions, which can reduce antagonistic interference
3. Environmentally friendly manganese source
Compared with inorganic manganese (e.g., manganese sulfate, manganese oxide), higher absorption rate in the intestine and low emission, which can reduce heavy metal pollution in soil and water.
1. Participates in chondroitin synthesis and bone mineralization, helps prevent bone dysplasia, soft feet and lameness;
2. Manganese, as a core component of superoxide dismutase (Mn-SOD), helps scavenge free radicals and improve stress resistance
3. Improve the economic characteristics of poultry eggshell quality, broiler muscle antioxidant capacity and meat water retention
1.Laying Hens
Adding Basic manganese chloride to the diet of laying hens can effectively improve laying performance, alter serum biochemical parameters, increase mineral deposition in eggs, and enhance egg quality.
2.Broilers
Manganese is a key trace element for broiler growth and development. Incorporation of Basic manganese chloride into broiler feed significantly enhances antioxidant capacity, bone quality, and manganese deposition, thereby improving meat quality.

3.Pigs
Studies have demonstrated that during the finishing phase, providing manganese in the form of Basic manganese chloride leads to superior growth performance compared to manganese sulfate, with significant increases in body weight, average daily gain, and daily feed intake.
4.Ruminants
During adaptation of ruminants to high-starch diets, substituting copper, manganese, and zinc sulfates with their hydroxy forms—Basic copper, manganese, and zinc chlorides (Cu: 6.92 mg/kg; Mn: 62.3 mg/kg; Zn: 35.77 mg/kg)—can modulate beef cattle growth performance, plasma inflammation markers, and energy metabolism indices, thereby enhancing health under high-concentrate feeding conditions.
