Abstract

δ-MnO2, α-MnO2 and β-MnO2 nano-particles were obtained by a hydrothermal method with changing molar ratios of K+/H+ at low temperature of 180℃, and the molar ratios of K+/H+were 3.4, 0.85 and 0.24, respectively. The as-prepared samples were characterized by SEM, XRD, FTIR, BET, TG and electrochemical method. The results indicate that the concentrations of K+ ion and H+ ion have great effects on the crystalline structures, morphology and specific surface area of the as-prepared products. Among the three as-prepared samples used as cathodic materials in zinc air battery, the rate performances of the δ-MnO2 and α-MnO2 are superior to that of the as-prepared β-MnO2. The oxygen reduction currents of δ-MnO2, α-MnO2, and β-MnO2 at -0.35 V are 56.28, 56.01 and 40.88 mA/cm2, respectively.

In the development of metal-air batteries or fuel cells, the high performance electrocatalysts for air cathode is an important issue. Various types of electrocatalysts, e.g., Pt and Pt-Ru alloys have been investigated as a key component of the electrodes, however, they are expensive. Significant progress has been made in recent years in the development of economical electrocatalysts, such as perovskite, spinels, pyrochlores, other oxides, pyrolyzed macrocycles, etc. Among the alternatives for platinum catalysts, MnO2 is the best promising due to its low cost, its high catalytic activity for the oxygen reduction[ 1], protonelectron intercalation properties[ 2]. It is also well known as chemical oxidation catalysts and magnetic materials[ 3, 4]. The performance of air electrode composed of KMnO4 catalyst for oxygen reduction reaction has also been examined[ 5]. Some studies have been reported on its oxygen reduction characteristics[ 6]. Burchardt[ 7] has evaluated the electrocatalytic activity and stability for air electrodes.

MnO2 has many polymorphic forms with different properties, such as α-, β-, γ- and δ-types. Several methods have been developed for the preparation of nanoscale manganese dioxides, including Sol-Gel templating[ 8], the thermal decomposition[ 9], refluxing[ 10], solvent-free solid reaction[ 11], electrodeposition[ 12], hydrothermal methods[ 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27] and others[ 28]. Recent reports on the hydrothermal preparation of manganese dioxides has mainly involved redox reaction of MnO4- and/or Mn2+ or the phase transformation of granular manganese dioxide precursors. DeGuzman, et al[ 13] prepared fibrous α-MnO2 through the redox reaction between KMnO4 and MnSO4. The effects of pH and temperature on the crystalline structures of the final products were discussed. β-MnO2 was obtained when the temperature was kept above 120℃. Wei, et al[ 19]synthesized α-MnO2 and β-MnO2 single-crystal nanowires by hydrothermal treatment of γ-MnO2 at different temperatures. Shen, et al[ 20] reported the preparation of octahedral molecular sieve manganese oxide nanomaterials with different tunnel sizes by controlling the pH of the hydrothermal transformation of layered manganese dioxide precursors.

The synthesis and characterization of different crystalline MnO2 have been the main subjects of many studies, but limited attention has been paid on the effect of different molar ratios of K+/H+ on the crystalline structures and electrochemical properties of the final MnO2 products.

In this work, we report a hydrothermal method for synthesis of α-MnO2, β-MnO2 and δ-MnO2 by using the same reaction with different molar ratios of K+/H+ at low temperature of 180℃. The morphology and electrochemical properties of the as-prepared MnO2 were characterized. The results show that different molar ratios of K+/H+ can influence the crystalline structures and electrochemical properties of the final MnO2 products.

1 Experimental
1.1 Preparation of MnO2 electrocatalysts

All reagents were analytical grade and used as received without further purification. Distilled water was used in preparation and measurements. KMnO4 (99.5%) and HNO3 (65%-68%) were supplied by Guangzhou Haizhu Zone Chemical Reagent Company.

The samples were obtained in a typical synthesis using KMnO4 and HNO3 with a molar ratio of about 3.4:1(a1), 0.85:1(b1) and 0.2:1(c1), respectively. The weight of KMnO4 for synthesizing sample a1, b1 and c1 is 0.79, 0.79 and 0.2 g, respectively, while the concentration of HNO3is 0.05, 0.2 and 0.2 mol/L (all for the volume of 30 mL). KMnO4 was dissolved in HNO3 under stirring for 30 min condition. The solution was transferred to a Teflon-lined stainless-steel autoclave, sealed and maintained at 180℃ for 24 h. The brown-black precipitates were filtered and washed with distilled water for several times to remove the unreacted materials and excess materials. The washing was done until the pH value of the washed water was 7. The resulting products were finally dried at 80℃ for 24 h in air.

1.2 Preparation of air electrodes

Air electrodes for performance evaluation were produced in two layers: the catalyst layer on the electrolyte side and a waterproof diffusion layer on the gas side. The active layer was composed of a catalyst (typically 80wt%), Vulcan XC-72 (10wt%, Hexing Chemical Industry Co., Ltd) and PTFE (10wt%, Dupont). The as-prepared catalysts (a1, b1 and c1) were used as the active material in air electrode. A slurry of the above mixture was made using absolute alcohol as a solvent. Then it was sandwiched in two foamed nickel foils, subsequently compressed for 3 min at 5×103 kg/cm2 under 120℃ to obtain the air electrode.

1.3 Physical characterization

The phase structure of the as-prepared MnO2 samples was recorded by X-ray diffraction (Rigaku D/max 2200 vpc). And the morphologies of samples were examined with scanning electron microscope (SEM, JEOL JSM-6490LV). Thermal properties were measured on a thermogravimetric analyzer (NETZSCH 409PC, Germany) with a heating rate of 10 K/min from 50℃ to 280℃. In the test process, nitrogen was used as the purge gas at a flow rate of 50 mL/min. The Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) specific surface area was determined with a specific surface area instrument (ASAP2020M, Japan). The IR spectra were recorded on a Fourier transformation infrared (FTIR) spectrometer (IR Prestige-20, Shimadzu, Japan).

1.4 Electrochemical measurements

Linear sweep voltammetry were performed in a three-electrode configuration on an electrochemical station (CHI 650, Wuhan, China). 6 mol/L KOH solution was used as the electrolyte. The prepared air electrodes were used as the working electrode with the working area of 2 cm × 2 cm. A homemade Hg/HgO electrode was used as reference electrode. In the linear sweep voltammetry, a platinum sheet was used as the counter electrode and the scan rate was 1 mV/s. In the battery performance determination, a zinc sheet was used as the anode. To prevent moisture penetrating from the outside and flooding-out of the electrolyte from the inside of the cell, a PTFE sheet was attached to the cathode side that was open to the air.

The discharge tests of the simulated cells were performed on CT2001A (WUHAN, CHINA) and were discharged to an end voltage of 0.9 V at different constant currents of 1, 5 and 10 mA/cm2.

All measurements were carried out at 25℃ (with an accuracy of 0.05℃) using a water thermostat. To make the results reproducible and reliable, a fresh electrolyte solution was used in every measurement.

2 Results and discussion
2.1 XRD analysis

Figure 1 shows the XRD patterns of the as-prepared products. From Fig. 1, it is obvious that the sample a1, b1 and c1 belong to δ-MnO2, α-MnO2 and β-MnO2, respectively. The ratio of K+ion to H+ ion exerts a decisive influence on the crystal structure of the products. When H+ ion concentration is lower than that of K+ ion (nk+/nH+=3.4), the observed product is δ-MnO2 as described above, which is layered crystal structure. When H+ ion concentration is about equal to that of K+ ion ( nk+/ nH+=0.85), the product is converted to α-MnO2. Under the condition of lower concentration of K+ ion and higher concentration of H+ ion ( nk+/ nH+=0.24), the obtained product is β-MnO2. The result indicates that K+ion can serve as a template for the formation of the [2×2] tunnel structure of α-MnO2 while H+ ion cannot be the template for it. The formation of β-MnO2 is no need for template ion, and the tendency to form β-MnO2 at low K+ concentration is rationalized. Main reasons are as follow: the polymorphs of α- and δ-type are different from β-type that the α- and δ-type are constructed from double chains of [MnO6] octahedral forming [2×2] tunnels, while the β-type is composed of single chain of octahedral forming [1×1] tunnels, and β-MnO2 is the thermodynamically stable phase and other MnO2 phases tend to be converted to β-MnO2 under appropriate condition[ 29].

Fig. 1 XRD patterns for three types of the as-prepared samplesa1:δ-MnO2; b1:α-MnO2; c1:β-MnO2

Therefore, K+ served as template for the formation of double chains of [MnO6] octahedral forming [2×2] tunnels. It can be noted that sample c1 shows better crystalline than samples a1 and b1. This phenomenon can be ascribed to the different H+ concentration. The higher H+ concentration reduces the formation rate of manganese dioxide and thus favors the formation of better crystalline of the product (c1).

2.2 FTIR analysis

FT-IR spectra of the as-prepared MnO2 samples are shown in Fig. 2. The bands at around 3420, 2366, 1622 and 1136 cm-1 correspond to the O-H vibrating mode of absorbed water. The band located at about 580 cm-1 on curve a1 in Fig. 2(B) is attributed to the metal-oxygen (Mn-O) bending vibration in δ-MnO2. The bands located at 590 and 510 cm-1 belong to the metal-oxygen (Mn-O) bending vibration of [MnO6] octahedral in α-MnO2 as shown in Fig.2(B) (b1)[ 30], while the bands located at 714, 523 and 469 cm-1 correspond to the metal-oxygen (Mn-O) bending vibration of β-MnO2 as shown in Fig. 2(B)(c1)[ 31]. The result of FT-IR spectra is consistent with the XRD result.

2.3 TG analysis

The results of TG analysis of the as-prepared samples are shown in Fig. 3. From the TG profiles, it can be seen that the samples show different thermal behavior. Two major weight losses occur between 50℃ and 280℃. The first weight loss (1.65wt%, 1.73wt% and 1.62wt% for a1, b1 and c1, respectively) below 120℃ can be attributed to desorption of physisorbed water whilst the release of chemisorbed water may be responsible for the significant weight loss (6.43wt%, 6.08wt% and 4.95wt% for a1, b1 and c1, respectively) occurred between 120 and 280℃.

2.4 SEM analysis and BET specific surface area

The morphology of the as-prepared samples was ob- served by SEM, as shown in Fig. 4. From Fig. 4(a), it can be seen that the product particles are uniformly distributed and the products are mainly composed of spherical-like particles with 250 nm of average grain size. For the active material, the smaller particles have larger specific surface area and shorter diffusion distance, which provides better rate performance. Fig. 4(b) shows the existence of the opening hydrangea like morphologies and the nanostructued particles in the as-prepared b1 sample (about 500 nm). Figure 4(c) shows that there exists a great deal of large particles of MnO2, which consisted of aggregation of MnO2 hystrichosphere particles (about 250 nm). Thus, the morphology can be affected by the concentrations of the reactants. However, the actual mechanism is not clear for the moment and needs to be further investigated.

Fig. 4 SEM images of the as-prepared samples

The BET surface areas of the samples, as shown in Table 1, are 68.2, 67.8 and 62.1 m2/g for a1 (δ-MnO2), b1 (α-MnO2) and c1 (β-MnO2), respectively. Compared to c1, the specific surface areas of a1 and b1 are increased by 9.8% and 9.2%, respectively.

Table 1 Specific surface area of as-prepared samples
2.5 Polarization curves for the ORR on the catalysts

Steady state polarization curves for the as-prepared samples are presented in Fig. 5. The current density was obtained based on the area of the work electrode because the electrodes contained the as-prepared catalysts with the same weight. As seen in Fig. 5, the initial oxygen reduction potentials for the electrodes consisting of the as-prepared catalysts are -0.04 V (c1), -0.05 V (a1) and -0.05 V (b1). Subsequently, with scanning potential becoming more negative, the reduction current increases slowly. The oxygen reduction current of the as-prepared samples (a1, b1 and c1) at -0.35 V is 56.28, 56.01 and 40.88 mA/cm2, respectively. Compared with b1 (α-MnO2) and c1 (β-MnO2), the catalytic oxygen reduction current of a1 (δ-MnO2) is increased by 0.48% and 37.67%, respectively. The results suggest that the catalytic activity of the as-prepared catalysts is related to not only the specific surface area but also the crystal structure. The activity towards oxygen reduction of the as-prepared samples is in the order: δ-MnO2 ≈α-MnO2 >β-MnO2, which is in agreement with the other reports[ 32].

2.6 Electrochemical testing of the experimental cell

Figure 6 shows the discharge curves of the as-prepared samples a1 (δ-MnO2), b1 (α-MnO2) and c1(β-MnO2) as cathodes in 6 mol/L KOH. From Fig. 6, it is clear that all the three electrodes exhibit smooth discharge curves. At a current rate of 1 mA/cm2, a1, b1 and c1 have an open-circuit voltage of 1.38, 1.35 and 1.35 V, and a discharge plateau at 1.22, 1.22 and 1.20 V, respectively. The discharge capacity of a1, b1 and c1 is 231, 229 and 220 mA·h, respectively, as shown in the curves a, d and h. In addition, at a high rate of 5 mA/cm2, the open-circuit voltage of a1, b1 and c1 is 1.20, 1.20 and 1.18 V, respectively. And the discharge capacity of the catalysts is 205 mA·h (a1), 203 mA·h (b1) and 186 mA·h (c1). When the current rates was increased to 10 mA/cm2, the discharge capacity of a1, b1 and c1 were decreased to 175, 174 and 160 mA·h, respectively. With increasing current rate, the reduction of the discharge capacity of a1 is equal to that of b1, but smaller than that of the c1. This phenomenon can be ascribed to the better crystalline, which does not favor the conduction of proton and electron during oxygen reduction reaction.

3 Conclusion

The effect of the concentration of K+ ion and H+ ion on the microcrystals type and the surface morphology of the products synthesized by a hydrothermal method, and the relationship between the microcrystals type and electrochemical performance were investigated in the paper. XRD and SEM images show that the as-prepared samples are δ-MnO2(a1), α-MnO2(b1) and β-MnO2(c1), obtained by a hydrothermal method with different concentration ratio of Ck+/ CH+=3.4, Ck+/ CH+=0.85 and Ck+/ CH+=0.2, respectively, indicating that δ-MnO2 nanorods can be synthesized by controlling the concentration ratio of K+/H+ in the solution. The all three as-prepared MnO2 samples contain physisorbed water and chemisorbed water which doesn’t affect the catalystic activity of the samples. The sequence of the as-prepared samples is δ-MnO2≈α-MnO2> β-MnO2 in the catalystic oxygen reduction activity, which is in agreement with the sequence of the surface area of the samples. It is obvious that the concentration of K+ ion and H+ ion has a strong effect on the structure, morphology and electrochemical properties of the different type MnO2 products.
