Abstract
The synthesis of manganese oxide embedded carbon nanocomposite by direct carbonization of nano-sized manganese oxide/cellulose hybrid nanocomposite is reported. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) were used to characterize surface phase structure and chemical states. Field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM) and transmission electron microscope (TEM) were used to study its particle size, structure, and composite morphology. Cyclic voltammetry (CV) was used to study the electrochemical capacitor activity of the electro-active sample. Manganese oxide cellulose hybrid nanocomposite exhibits the existence of manganese oxide nanoparticles (≈50 nm) that are well assembled and homogeneously dispersed in carbon after the carbonization process. The mixed-valence states of Mn3O4 hausmannite with different Mn ionic species of Mn2+, Mn3+, and Mn4+ were obtained at the carbonized surface sample. The improvement of electrochemical performance of the prepared manganese oxide carbon nanocomposite sample may attribute to various oxidation levels, and increased conductivity via strong bonding between manganese oxide and carbon leading to feasibility for application of supercapacitor electrode material.
