摘要
Formation and conversion mechanisms between single-crystal gamma-MnOOH and manganese oxides had investigated systematically. Without extra surfactant or template, alpha-MnO2 nanorods and prismatic single crystalline gamma-MnOOH rods had been synthesized under hydrothermal treatment in this study. The formation and conversion mechanisms of prismatic gamma-MnOOH rod were investigated by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). It was found that the formation process includes three evolution stages: (1) formation of alpha-MnO2 nanorods whiskers; (2) transformation from alpha-MnO2 nanorods to prismatic gamma-MnOOH rods by a dissolution-growth-recrystallization process; and (3) preferred growth on (1 1 (1) over bar) crystal plane. In addition, beta-MnO2, Mn2O3 or Mn3O4 rods could be obtained by calcination of the gamma-MnOOH rods at different temperatures, which indicated that gamma-MnOOH is an important precursor for preparing manganese oxides. The morphology and dimension of gamma-MnOOH rods remained unchanged after converted to beta-MnO2, Mn2O3 and Mn3O4. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
