Abstract: Single-phase monoclinic MnV2O6 nanoflakes were prepared by the hydrothermal process at 180℃ for 18h, using Mn(CH3COO)2·4H 2O and NH4VO3 as starting materials, and acetic acid was used to adjust the pH value of the reaction solution. The as-prepared samples were characterized by field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM), and transmission electron microscope (TEM), X-ray photoelectron spectrum measurements, and the component of MnV2O6 was confirmed. The result indicates that the products consist of a large quantity of compact accumulated nanoflakes, with average width of 0.85μm, thickness of 100nm and lengthup to 1.7μm.

Key words: MnV2O6, hydrothermal synthesis, nanoflakes
