Used in metallurgy for powder metallurgy processes to produce precision components like gears and bearings due to its compressibility and sintering properties.

Commonly employed in the manufacturing of electrical and electronic parts where high purity and magnetic performance are required.

Acts as a catalyst support in chemical synthesis and environmental applications.

Utilized in the production of welding electrodes and fluxes to stabilize arcs and improve weld quality.

Applied in the food industry as a dietary iron supplement in fortified products owing to its bioavailability and low toxicity.

Also used in environmental remediation to remove contaminants such as heavy metals and chlorinated compounds from water through reductive processes.
