In this work, the crystal structure of alpha-MnO2 has been obtained by the hydrothermal method. It was determined that the obtained material has a tunnel structure with average particle sizes of 12-15 nm. The electrochemical performances of α-MnO2 in an aqueous solution of 30 % KOH based electrolyte have been investigated by cyclic voltammetry and galvanostatic cycling methods. At the same time, it was determined that the specific capacity of the α-MnO2/electrolyte system decreased from 90 F/g to 55 F/g with an increase of the scan rate from 2 to 10 mV/s. Thus, the maximum values of specific capacitance about 104 F/g were obtained at 0.5 mV/s. The Coulomb efficiency of the electrochemical system is constant and independent of the cycle number under the charge/discharge process. Therefore, the total capacity of the material under investigation can be divided into the capacity of the double electric layer and the diffusion-controlled redox capacity due to the Faraday reverse redox reactions. It was determined that the contribution of pseudocapacity is 90 % of the total specific capacity. In addition, it has been determined that the α-MnO2/KOH electrochemical system is stable under long-term cycling process. |
