Description
Summary:One-dimensional of layered structure manganese oxide (MnO2) has been synthesized via hydrothermal route without further heat treatment. Varying the hydrothermal route parameter has an effect on the layered structure of MnO2. α-MnO2 obtained in this study has been physicochemical characterized using X-Ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier Transmission Infra-Red (FTIR), Field Emission Electron Microscopy (FESEM), Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) and Selected Area Electron Diffraction (SAED). Its electrochemical property has been evaluated by performing cyclic voltammetry using potentiostat. From the electrochemical analysis, it was shown MnO2 with larger layered structure having high specific (Cs) compared to that of MnO2 with smaller layered structure. This high CS is originated from a combination of electrochemical double layer and pseudo-capacitance storage mechanisms. Besides, the appearance of water molecules within the layered spacing assisted the cations diffusion process.
