Parkerizing is an iron phosphate, differing from Coslettizing by the addition of an oxidizing agent and catalyzer, usually magnesium oxide.

In Coslettizing, a ferrous phosphate solution made from iron filings, and 1% phosphoric acid and water are boiled together for about 2 hours.

From the Metals Handbook, 1948.

Manganese oxide, rather than magnesium oxide?
