Objective(s):   Recently, applications of MnO2 nanoparticles and microparticles in industry, pharmacology, and medicine have considerably expanded. Mn distribution and clearance from brain and spinal cord tissue compared with muscle tissue of rats after single subcutaneous injection of nanoparticles and microparticle of MnO2. Pain sensory threshold of rat was evaluated as neurologic consequence...

In the present work, we have reported the in situ oxidation of manganese (II) acetate to MnO2 nanoparticles through the thermal plasma carbonized natural hydroxyapatite (MnO2/TP-NHAp) as a neoteric sustainable method. Interestingly, the thermal plasma-processed surface of the NHAp shows a great ability for oxidation of the manganese (II) without need of any external oxidizing agents. The cataly...

Chemically produced coppercontaining MnO2 nanoparticles were studied using FTIR, UV-Vis spectroscopy, XRD, AFM, cyclic voltammetric and charge/discharge behaviour. Mixed nanocomposites have a crystalline size of 50 nm was calculated through Debye Scherrer’s equation from XRD analysis. The FTIR spectra recorded region 400- 4000 cm-1, clean doped Manganese dioxide nanoparticles. Mn–O can be ascri...

Yarn-based supercapacitors having improved performance are needed for existing and emerging wearable applications. Here, we report weavable carbon nanotube yarn supercapacitors having high performance because of high loadings of rapidly accessible charge storage particles (above 90 wt% MnO2). The yarn electrodes are made by a biscrolling process that traps host MnO2 nanoparticles within the gal...

Manganese dioxide (MnO2)-based nanostructures are promising electrode materials for supercapacitors (SCs) due to their low cost, eco-friendly nature, and high theoretical capacitance. However, the conductivity of MnO2 is poor, which a big problem when trying achieve desired capacitance value. Herein, hexagonal-phase nanoparticles (NPs) directly grown on 3D conductive carbon cloth (CC) (denoted ...

objective: this study investigated tissue damages induced by chronic subcutaneous administration of nano- and microparticles of manganese dioxide (mno2) on the liver, kidneys and testes of rats. methods: rats (n=210) were divided into three groups: control, mno2 nanoparticle injected and mno2 microparticle injected. the experimental groups received subcutaneous injections with either nano- or m...

Electrochemical and in situ X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) measurements of various MnO2-coated carbon materials (MnO2/acid-functionalized carbon nanotubes (C-CNT), MnO2/reduced graphene oxide (RGO), and MnO2/RGO-Au electrodes) were conducted to evaluate the supercapacitive performances and electronic structures. MnO2 was deposited on the surface of C-CNT, RGO, and RGO-Au via a spontaneous ...

Freestanding yet flexible membranes of MnO/carbon nanofibers are successfully fabricated through incorporating MnO2 nanowires into polymer solution by a facile electrospinning technique. During the stabilization and carbonization processes of the as-spun membranes, MnO2 nanowires are transformed to MnO nanoparticles coincided with a conversion of the polymer from an amorphous state to a graphit...

This work presented a novel core-shell MnO2@m-SiO2 for catalyzing the removal of dyes from wastewater. MnO2 nanorods were sequentially coated with polydopamine (PDA) and polyethyleneimine (PEI) forming MnO2@PDA-PEI. By taking advantage of the positively charged amine groups, MnO2@PDA-PEI was further silicificated, forming MnO2@PDA-PEI-SiO2. After calcination, the composite MnO2@m-SiO2 was final...
