Electrochemical activation of commercial MnO microsized particles for high-performance aqueous zinc-ion batteries
Abstract
Abstract Manganese oxides represent a class of promising cathode materials for rechargeable aqueous zinc-ion batteries (ZIBs) due to their high energy density, safety, low cost, eco-friendliness and non-toxicity. However, manganese monooxide (MnO) is considered to be inactive for Zn2+ energy storage. Herein, for the first time, we demonstrate the possible application of commercial MnO microsized particles as cathodes for high performance ZIBs. It is interesting to note that electrochemical activation (or oxidation) is observed during the initial charging process, which leads to the formation of porous layered-type MnO2 nanosheets surrounding the MnO surface. As a result, the activated cathode could deliver a maximum specific capacity of 330 mAh g−1 in ZnSO4 aqueous electrolyte at a current density of 0.1 A g−1. In addition, the underlying energy storage mechanism is systematically investigated. The present work provides a new insight into the electrochemical activation strategy for developing advanced cathodes for high-performance zinc-ion batteries.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
