General description

Manganese(II) nitrate hydrate is an inorganic salt highly soluble in water. It can be used as a source of manganese ions in the synthesis of various manganese-containing materials for batteries and supercapacitor applications. Additionally, it also serves as a safe, cost-effective, and efficient electrolyte for rapid energy storage applications.

Application

Manganese(II) nitrate hydrate can be used as:      
  • A precursor for the synthesis of manganese dioxide (MnO2), which is a common cathode material in primary alkaline batteries. 
  • A precursor in the synthesis of manganese dioxide (MnO2) for use in flexible micro supercapacitors. MnO2 exhibits high specific capacitance and excellent cycling stability, making it suitable for rapid energy storage applications.    
  • A manganese source in the colloidal solution combustion synthesis process to produce 3D δ-MnO2 nanostructures with ultra-large mesopores used in the fabrication of high-performance lithium-ion battery anodes.     
  • A precursor in the microwave-aided fabrication of calcium-substituted dysprosium perovskite manganite oxide nanocomposites (DyMnO3) for supercapacitor applications.

Aluminum-air batteries are promising candidates for next-generation high-energy-density storage, but the inherent limitations hinder their practical use. Here, we show that silver nanoparticle-mediated silver manganate nanoplates are a highly active and chemically stable catalyst for oxygen reduction in alkaline media.
