a novel nano – sized  manganese (ii) coordination polymer, [{mn(ncs)2(l)(h2o)2}(l)]n  , (1) (l- = 4,4'-bipyridine), have been synthesized by a sonochemical process and characterized by scanning electron microscopy (sem), x-ray diffraction (xrd), ir spectroscopy and elemental analysis.  direct calcination of the single crystals and nano-sized compound 1 at 400 0c under air atmosphere yields...

The study highlights the corrosion behavior of untreated and treated tantalum with addition trimanganese tetraoxide (Mn3O4) nanoparticles in simulated inflammatory media. anodic layer was produced on pure by anodization electrolytes composed ammonium fluoride, ethylene glycol, water. Nanoparticles were deposited uniformly surface anodized electrophoretic deposition (EPD) method. results reveale...

Chemisorption of water onto anhydrous nanophase manganese oxide surfaces promotes rapidly reversible redox phase changes as confirmed by calorimetry, X-ray diffraction, and titration for manganese average oxidation state. Surface reduction of bixbyite (Mn2O3) to hausmannite (Mn3O4) occurs in nanoparticles under conditions where no such reactions are seen or expected on grounds of bulk thermodyn...

Transition metal oxides are regarded as promising candidates of anode for next-generation lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) due to their ultrahigh theoretical capacity and low cost, but restricted by conductivity large volume expansion during Li+ intercalation. Herein, we designed constructed a structurally-integrated three-dimensional (3D) carbon tube (3D-CT) grid film with Mn3O4 nanoparticles (Mn3...

Mn3O4 nanoparticles has been synthesised from Manganese (II) acetate and Simarouba Glauca leaf extract using microwave heating. This novel method of synthesis of Mn3O4 is fast, low-cost, non-toxic and environment friendly. The synthesised product was characterised by powder X-ray diffraction(XRD),Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy( FT-IR), Ultraviolet-Visible spectroscopy( UV-Visible), X-r...

Mn-based nanoparticles have been regarded as a new class of probes for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), but their low relaxivity is the major obstacle for applications in vivo. Herein, we designed and constructed a multifunctional nanotheranostic (FA-Mn3O4@PDA@PEG) for MRI guided combinatorial chemo-/photothermal therapy (PTT) for cancer. The ultrahigh relaxivity of 14.47 mM-1 s-1 makes the na...

Mn-based nanoparticles (NPs) have emerged as new class of probes for magnetic resonance imaging due to the impressive contrast ability. However, the reported Mn-based NPs possess low relaxivity and there are no immunotoxicity data regarding Mn-based NPs as contrast agents. Here, we demonstrate the ultrahigh relaxivity of water protons of 8.26 mM(-1) s(-1) from the Mn3O4 NPs synthesized by a sim...

High nitrogen-doped carbon/Mn3O4 composites were synthesized by annealing nitrogen-rich Mn-based coordination polymer particles, and investigated by electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and electrochemical experiments. To assess the performance of high nitrogen-doped hybrids as electrode materials in supercapacitors, cyclic voltammetry and galvanostatic charging-discharging measurements are ...
