نویسندگان
چکیده
A simple one-step route for preparing α-MnO(2) nanotubes is reported. The α-MnO(2) nanotubes exhibit a high surface area of 226 m(2) g(-1) and reversible capacity of 512 mA h g(-1) at a high current density of 800 mA g(-1) after 300 cycles, as well as cycling stability when measured as an anode in lithium batteries.

Interfacial Mechanics of Carbon
Heterogeneous nanostructures may offer better or new properties that are not originally present in constituting components by judiciously combining two or more different materials. For example, silicon coating on carbon nanotubes (CNTs) improves the thermal stability of carbon nanotubes by acting as a protective fi lm, [ 1 ] and silicon-coated CNT composites have been proposed as promising lith...
متن کاملEnhanced wettability and electrolyte uptake of coated commercial polypropylene separators with inorganic nanopowders for application in lithium-ion battery
In this research, inorganic material type and content influence on coating of commercially available polypropylene (PP) separator were studied for improving its performance and safety as lithium ion battery separator. Heat-resistant nanopowders of Al2O3, SiO2 and ZrO2 were coated using polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) binder. Coating effects on the separators morphology, wettability, high tempera...
متن کاملMnO2 prepared by hydrothermal method and electrochemical performance as anode for lithium-ion battery
Two α-MnO2 crystals with caddice-clew-like and urchin-like morphologies are prepared by the hydrothermal method, and their structure and electrochemical performance are characterized by scanning electron microscope (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), galvanostatic cell cycling, cyclic voltammetry, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The morphology of the MnO2 prepared under acidic con...

MnO2 nanoparticle enriched poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) nanowires are fabricated by simply soaking the PEDOT nanowires in potassium permanganate (KMnO4) solution. The structures of these MnO2 nanoparticle enriched PEDOT nanowires are characterized by SEM and TEM, which show that the MnO2 nanoparticles have uniform sizes and are finely dispersed in the PEDOT matrix. The chemical cons...
متن کاملMagnetic properties in α-MnO2 doped with alkaline elements
α-MnO2 nanotubes were fabricated using a hydrothermal technique. Li, Na and K ions were introduced into MnO2 nanotubes to tailor their magnetic properties. It was found that with a doping concentration lower than 12 at%, the nanotubes showed ferromagnetic-like ordering at low temperature (<50 K), while antiferromagnetic coupling dominated their physical behavior with doping concentrations beyon...
