摘要: The authors reported a facile method for the synthesis of manganese dioxide without any template and catalyst at a low-temperature. The prepared sample was characterized with X-ray diffraction(XRD), scanning electron microscopy(SEM), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller(BET) surface analysis, Fourier transform infrared(FTIR) spectrometry, cyclic voltammetry, alternative current(AC) impedance test and battery discharge test. It is found that the prepared sample belongs to α-MnO2 and has a microsphere morphology and a large BET surface area. The electrochemical characterization indicates that the prepared sample displays a larger electrochemical capacitance than the commercial electrolytic manganese dioxides(EMD) in Na2SO4 solution, and exhibits larger discharge capacity than EMD, especially at a high rate discharge condition when it is used as cathode of alkaline Zn/MnO2 battery.
