Rechargeable aqueous Zn/MnO 2 batteries raise massive research activities in recent years. However, both the working principle and the degradation mechanism of this battery chemistry are still under debate. Herein, we provide an in-depth electrochemical and structural investigation on this controversial issue based on α-MnO 2 crystalline nanowires. Mechanistic analysis substantiates a two-electron reaction pathway of Mn 2+/Mn 4+ redox couple from part of MnO 2 accompanying with a reversible precipitation/dissolution of flaky zinc sulfate hydroxide (ZSH) during the discharge/charge processes. The formation of the ZSH layer is double-edged, which passivates the deep dissolution of MnO 2 upon discharging, but promotes the electrochemical deposition kinetics of active MnO 2 upon charging. The cell degradation originates primarily from the corrosion failure of metallic zinc anode and the accumulation of irreversible ZnMn 2O 4 phases on the cathode. The addition of MnSO 4 to the electrolyte could afford supplementary capacity contribution via electro-oxidation of Mn 2+. However, a high MnSO 4 concentration will expedite the cell failure by corroding the metallic zinc anodes. The present study will shed a fundamental insight on developing new strategies toward practically viable Zn/MnO 2 batteries. 相似文献

Manganese dioxide nanostructures have been synthesized by hydrothermal synthetical method. The crystallographic structure,
morphology, and electrochemical properties of obtained MnO 2 are examined by XRD, TEM, cyclic voltammetry, and galvanostatic charge–discharge tests. The results showed that the electrochemical
properties of MnO 2 were strongly affected by the crystallographic structure and morphology. The controlling crystallographic structure of MnO 2 can be obtained by altering the molar ratio of KMnO 4/MnSO 4. The morphology was affected by the hydrothermal dwell time and temperature. The optimal synthetic conditions are as follows:
the initial molar ratio of KMnO 4/MnSO 4 is 3:1, the reaction lasts 2 h at 120 °C, and the filling factor is 90%. In these prepared conditions, the MnO 2 with the maximum specific capacitance of 259 F g −1 can be obtained. Prepared δ-MnO 2 has a good layer structure and exhibits nanoflower morphology. The XRD studies show that the crystalline degree of this sample
is lower, and the average grain size is about 8.3 nm. These results indicate that the product may have potential applications
in areas such as electrode materials of supercapacitor and other new storing energy system. 相似文献

Spherical MnO 2 nanosheet aggregates have been synthesized by the reaction between MnSO 4 and KMnO 4 at room temperature. After the resulting products are treated under hydrothermal conditions, MnO 2 nanorods and tower‐like crystals have been prepared in the absence/presence of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide, respectively. The products are characterized by field‐emission scanning electron microscopy and x‐ray diffractometer, respectively. 相似文献

MnO 2/graphene oxide sheet composite (MnO 2/GOS) has been co-electrodeposited on the thermally treated carbon paper (TTCP) in phosphate buffer solution containing GOS and KMnO 4. The resulted samples have been characterized by scanning and transmission electron microscopy, Raman, X-ray diffraction, and X-ray photoelectron energy spectroscopy. The results show that the synthesized MnO 2 may be δ-MnO 2 and the morphology of MnO 2/GOS is very different from that of MnO 2, indicating that the introduction of GOS in electrolyte can influence the morphology during the deposition. The capacitive properties of the samples are investigated by using cyclic voltammetry, galvanostatic charge/discharge, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The specific capacitance of MnO 2 for MnO 2/GOS can reach about 829 F g ?1 at discharged current density of 1.0 A g ?1 in 1 M Na 2SO 4 aqueous solution, which is larger than that of MnO 2 deposited on TTCP. The composite of MnO 2/GOS also exhibits excellent cyclic stability with a decrease of 18.5 % specific capacitance after 1,500 cycles. 相似文献

For the first time, nanostructured manganese dioxide was successfully electrodeposited onto an ITO (indium tin oxide) glass substrate by cyclic voltammetry (CV) method from an aqueous solution of 0.1 M Na 2SO 4 containing 5 × 10 −3 M MnSO 4. The obtained manganese dioxide‐modified ITO glass substrates were characterized by energy dispersive spectrometry (EDS), Fourier transform infrared spectrometry (FTIR) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), respectively. All results not only proved the existence of MnO 2 on an ITO glass substrate but also demonstrated that the morphology of the obtained MnO 2 was greatly affected by the electrodeposition conditions. Also, this MnO 2‐modified ITO electrode was systematically investigated by cyclic voltammetry (CV), chronopotentiometry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) in an aqueous electrolyte of 0.1 M Na 2SO 4. The results obtained from electrochemical measurement indicated that this developed MnO 2‐modified ITO electrode has a satisfied specific capacitance value of 264 F·g −1 and exhibits excellent electrochemical stability and reversibility. 相似文献

A logically chosen redox reaction of submerged Fe 0 in an aqueous KMnO 4 solution has been reported. The template‐free reaction conditions produced gram amounts of a hierarchical flowerlike Fe 3O 4–MnO 2 nanocomposite. More precisely, freshly prepared Fe 0 nanoparticles were prepared from air‐free hot water under submerged conditions using a door magnet. The black Fe 0 particles were oxidized in water quantitatively by KMnO 4 in the solution phase and the nanocomposite was prepared. The material has been used as a dye adsorbent and the representative cationic dye uptake, recovery, and recycling of the dye becomes easy owing to the ferromagnetic properties and surface negative charge of the material. The nanocomposite also showed a higher specific capacitance (327 F g ?1 at 10 mV s ?1) than the reported values of pure MnO 2 and Fe 3O 4. The material exhibited a high energy density as well as a high power density, and remained stable even after a large number of charge–discharge cycles. 相似文献

The reaction between luminol and colloidal MnO 2 (prepared by chemical reduction of KMnO 4 with Na 2S 2O 3 under neutral aqueous condition) produced an intense chemiluminescence (CL) emission in alkaline medium. The CL reaction conditions were carefully optimized and the CL reaction mechanism was thoroughly discussed. Manganese(III) was suggested to be involved in the reaction and 3‐aminophthalate anion was the luminophor. Moreover, the effects of 23 compounds on the colloidal MnO 2‐luminol CL system were investigated to explore its possible analytical applications. Polyhydroxyl compounds were observed to inhibit the signal significantly, whereas sulfhydryl compounds enhance it slightly. The analytical figures for five polyhydroxyl compounds, namely ascorbic acid, rutin, pyrogallol, quercetin, and L‐adrenaline, were presented. As a preliminary application, the method was applied to the determination of rutin in pharmaceutical formulations. 相似文献

We report here the potential competency of MnCO 3 versus MnO 2 for supercapacitor applications. MnCO 3 was synthesized by a hydrothermal method using KMnO 4 as a manganese source and either sugar or pyrrole as carbon source. MnCO 3 synthesized using sugar and pyrrole as carbon source is referred hereafter as MnCO 3(s) and MnCO 3(p), respectively. The synthesized products were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopic and transmission electron microscopic studies. Microscopic studies revealed that MnO 2 possesses micro-flower-like morphology constructed by self-assembled nano-petals. While the morphology of MnCO 3(s) is sub-micron size particles of different shape, the morphology of MnCO 3(p) is crystalline particles of 10–20 nm dia. The capacitive characteristics of MnO 2, MnCO 3(s) and MnCO 3(p) were evaluated in aqueous 0.1 M Mg(ClO 4) 2 electrolyte between 0 and 1 V using cyclic voltammetry and galvanostatic charge/discharge cycling. Specific capacitance (SC) values of 216 and 296 F g ?1 obtained for MnCO 3(s) and MnCO 3(p) are 35 and 85 % higher than SC value of 160 F g ?1 obtained for MnO 2, respectively. Besides better capacitive storage characteristics, MnCO 3(s) and MnCO 3(p) have also exhibited better rate capability and cycle life than MnO 2. 相似文献

Nano-crystalline MnO 2 has been synthesized by the method of alcoholic hydrolysis of KMnO 4 and its potential as a sorbent for plutonium present in the low level liquid waste (LLW) solutions was investigated. The kinetic studies on the sorption of Pu by MnO 2 reveal the attainment of equilibrium sorption in 15 h, however 90 % of sorption could be achieved within an hour. In the studies on optimization of the solution conditions for sorption, it was observed that the sorption increases with the pH of the aqueous solution, attains the maximum value of 100 % at pH = 3 and remains constant thereafter. The sorption was found to be nearly independent of the ionic strength (0.01–1.0 M) of the aqueous solutions maintained using NaClO 4, indicating the inner sphere complexation between the Pu 4+ ions and the surface sites on MnO 2. Interference studies with different fission products, viz., Cs +, Sr 2+ and Nd 3+, revealed decrease in the percentage sorption with increasing pH of the suspension indicating the competition between the metal ions. However, at the metal ion concentrations prevalent in the low level liquid waste solutions, the decrease in the Pu sorption was only marginally decreased to 90 % at pH = 3, the decrease being more in the case of Nd 3+ than that in the case of Cs +. This study, therefore, shows nano-crystalline MnO 2 can be used as a sorbent for separation of Pu from LLW solutions. 相似文献

The morphologies of the asymmetric membranes of polystyrene- block-poly(ethylene-ran-butylene)- block-polystyrene (SEBS) prepared and simultaneously oxidized with different substrate solutions were investigated with atomic force microscopy (AFM), scanning electron microscope (SEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and attenuated total reflectance infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR). We used the KMnO 4 aqueous solution and KMnO 4/H 2SO 4 mixture solution as solvent-casting substrates, as well as oxidized reagents. The surface composition and functional groups of membranes were also measured. The effect of casting substrates on morphological changes was discussed through possible chemical reactions. It was found that the SEBS membranes were transformed from an ordered microphase-separated structure to disordered nodular or sponge-like structures. The former might be contributed to MnO 2 depositions while the latter was caused by the bond interruption, after KMnO 4 or KMnO 4/H 2SO 4 oxidizing. 相似文献

A functional graphene oxide nanoribbons/manganese dioxide composite material (MnO2-GONRs) was synthesized by hydrothermal method using graphene oxide nanoribbons (GONRs) as raw material which were formed by longitudinal unzipping of multi-walled carbon nanotubes with KMnO4 and H2SO4. The microstructure of MnO2-GONRs was characterized by SEM and FT-IR. The various factors affecting the adsorption of Th(IV) in aqueous solution such as pH, solid–liquid ratio, contact time, initial concentration and temperature were investigated by batch static adsorption experiments, and the adsorption mechanism is also discussed. The results showed that MnO2-GONRs had a good adsorption effect on Th(IV) with a maximum adsorption of 166.11 mg/g. 相似文献

The electrical properties of colloidal asphaltene/water solution interface were determined by carrying out the potentiometric titration and electrokinetic measurements. Asphaltenes in aqueous solutions exhibit typical organic colloid properties i.e. surface charge and electrophoretic mobility. It was considered that the surface charge at the asphaltene particles is a result of protonation and dissociation reactions of surface functional groups. On the base of the surface charge density data vs. pH the surface reaction constants were calculated by numerical method. The agreement of these values with calculated ones, on the base of ζ potential data, is noticeable. The characteristic feature of the investigated systems is the maximum, appearing on the curve ζ potential vs. electrolyte concentration. This behaviour is explained by ”hair layer ” structure of the asphaltene surface 相似文献

α-Manganese dioxide is synthesized in a microemulsion medium by a redox reaction between KMnO 4 and MnSO 4 in presence of sodium dodecyl sulphate as a surface active agent. The morphology of MnO 2 resembles nanopetals, which are spread parallel to the field. The material is further characterized by powder X-ray diffraction,
energy dispersive analysis of X-ray, and Brunauer–Emmett–Teller surface area. Supercapacitance property of α-MnO 2 nanopetals is studied by cyclic voltammetry and galvanostatic charge–discharge cycling. High values of specific capacitance

Potassium manganese dioxide K xMnO 2 + δ· nH 2O and amorphous MnO 2 in a mild 2 M KCl aqueous electrolyte prove to be excellent electrodes for faradaic electrochemical capacitors. The K xMnO 2 + δ· nH 2O materials were prepared by direct thermal decomposition of KMnO 4 and contained a large amorphous/crystalline ratio. A sample decomposed at 550 °C gave a specific cyclic capacitance between −0.2 and +1.0 V/SCE of 240 F·g −1, which corresponds to nearly one-third of the Mn(IV) ions participating in the faradaic reaction. Excellent cyclability at 12 mA·cm −2 was found for 100 cycles. On short-circuit, K 0,31MnO 2,12·0,63 H 2O in 2 M KCl and pH 10.6 aqueous solution gave an initial current density of 0.58 A·cm −2 and a total released charge of 4.6 C·cm −2 compared with 0.32 A·cm −2 and 11.1 C·cm −2 for RuOOH· nH 2O in 5.3 M H 2SO 4. Similar results obtained with amorphous MnO 2 demonstrate that alkali ions can be used as the working ion in a faradaic supercapacitor, which frees the search for new materials from the constraint of working in a strong-acid aqueous medium. 相似文献

With an aim to develop environment friendly and inexpensive materials for electrochemical capacitor electrodes, nanocrystalline γ‐MnO 2 with layered architecture of schist‐like structure was successfully synthesized by reducing mixed MnSO 4×H 2O and CTAMnO 4 precursors in stoichiometric amounts through a hydrothermal process. The as‐prepared MnO 2 was characterized by field emission scanning electron microscopy, X‐ray diffraction, and thermal gravimetric analysis. Also, cyclic voltammetry was employed to investigate the electrochemical properties of the products in neutral KCl aqueous solution, showing a higher enhanced capacitive performance than that of the sample without a coating of schist‐like γ‐MnO 2, indicating that our MnO 2‐based electrode provides a promising opportunity for high‐performance energy storage devices. 相似文献

二氧化锰(MnO 2)材料具有比容量大、电极电位高、储量丰富以及价格低廉等优势,成为水系锌电池正极最受关注的一类材料,然而其仍然存在着结构稳定性差和电化学储存机理复杂的问题。因此,我们通过两步合成法制备了一种花苞状结构的MnO 2负载在Ti 3C 2T x表面形成Ti 3C 2T x/MnO 2复合材料,通过X射线粉末衍射(XRD)、X射线光电子能谱(XPS)、透射电子显微镜(TEM)和高分辨透射电子显微镜(HRTEM)对复合样品的结构、成分和形貌进行表征。通过将Ti 3C 2T x/MnO 2复合材料作为正极,与锌负极匹配组装成水系锌电池,研究了其分别在2 mol·L -1 ZnSO 4、2 mol·L -1 ZnSO 4+0.1 mol·L -1 MnSO 4、30 mol·L -1三氟甲基磺酸四乙基铵(TEAOTf)+1 mol·L -1三氟甲烷磺酸锌(ZnOTf)和3 mol·L -1 ZnOTf四种电解液中的电化学性能。结果表明,Ti 3C 2T x/MnO 2在2 mol·L -1 ZnSO 4中的比容量较高,但循环稳定性很差。将TEAOTf盐和ZnOTf盐共溶于水中,设计了一种新型的含惰性阳离子的超高浓度盐包水电解液(30 mol·L -1 TEAOTf+1 mol·L -1 ZnOTf),不仅提高了Ti 3C 2T x/MnO 2材料的可逆性,而且有效抑制了电极材料在循环过程中的溶解。 相似文献

A simple portable spectrophotometer was constructed and used to perform analytical experiments. The developed model uses available tools and materials such as light emitting diode lamps, compact discs, plastic and cardboard boxes and a cell phone camera to build a design that illustrates the major components of spectrophotometers. The spectra of serial concentrations of KMnO 4 (50?600 μM) were recorded and the values of absorbance were extracted at λ max to build the calibration curve. A linear relationship between the concentration and absorbance was obtained with the coefficient of determination 0.994. The model was also utilized to study the spectra of KMnO 4, phenolphthalein and bromothymol blue in comparison with a Shimadzu UV-1800 spectrophotometer as a reference instrument. In spite of the differences in the observed spectra, the recorded λ max were almost identical to those measured by the developed model. The model was successfully used to determine the concentration of sodium alendronate through ligand-exchange complexation with ferric salicylate. 相似文献

The relative viscosity of colloidal silica dispersion in aqueous electrolytic solutions as the function of volume fraction of dry particles in the solutions has been experimentally determined in this work, in order to study the effects of pH and electrolytes (Na 2SO 4 and AlCl 3) on the hydration of the silica surfaces in the solutions. The results have shown that the maximum relative viscosity of the silica dispersion and the strongest hydration of the silica in aqueous solutions appeared at neutral pH, while the stronger the acidity and the alkalinity of the aqueous solution, the weaker the hydration. In the presence of the electrolytes (Na 2SO 4 and AlCl 3), the relative viscosity of the silica dispersion reduced and the hydration of the silica in aqueous solutions became weak. The higher the concentration of the electrolytes, the weaker the hydration, indicating that the destabilization of the colloidal silica dispersion in aqueous solutions might be realized through adding the high-valence electrolytes to weaken the hydration of the particle surfaces (hydration forces between the particles). Also, it has been shown that the negative zeta potentials of the colloidal silica in aqueous solutions greatly reduced in the presence of the electrolytes. Therefore, the high-valence electrolytes (Na 2SO 4 and AlCl 3) as the coagulant of colloidal silica in aqueous solutions might be originated from that the presence of the electrolytes simultaneously reduces the electrical double layer repulsive force and the hydration repulsive forces between the particles in aqueous solutions. 相似文献

In absence of Ba +2 ions arsenite reduces KMnO 4 in alkaline medium to MnO 2 without the appearance of an inflection at the manganate state. Reduction could be checked at the manganate in presence of 1 N NaOH and Ba +2 equal to 3 times that equivalent to MnO 4-2 and arsenate, and when dilute arsenite solutions are applied viz.0.02 N In absence of Ba +2 ions the end-points are attained later than the MnO 2 stage except in 2–3 N NaOH. In presence of telluric acid good results are obtained at all alkalinities whence reduction is checked at Mn +4.As +3 could be estimated also by mixing with KMnO 4 either in the presence of Ba +2 ions + 1 N NaOH or in absence of Ba +2 ions + I.5–3 N NaOH and back-titrating the excess oxidant with monovalent thallium. 相似文献
