Synthesis, morphology, and phase composition of manganese oxide obtained under exposure to external electric field

New method for obtaining highly dispersed manganese oxide under the action of a dc electric field was suggested. It was found that the electric field parameters affect the phase composition, shape, morphology and size of manganese oxide particles and the content of water. It is demonstrated that the manganese oxide synthesized can be used as a vulcanizing agent in manufacture of sealants based on thiocol and surpasses in application efficiency the analog produced by the conventional method.
