The synthesized sample was characterized systems [5]. physically by thermogravimetric analysis, X-ray diffraction, MnO2 with different physical and chemical properties, transmission electron microscope (TEM), and Brunauer– such as crystallinity, amount of combined water, specific Emmett–Teller (BET) surface area measurement, respec- surface areas, and electrochemical performance, can be tively. Electrochemical characterization was performed yielded under different synthesis conditions. Up to now, using cyclic voltammetry and chronopotentiometry in many routes for the preparation of MnO2 have been 2 mol/l KOH aqueous solution electrolyte. The results of developed including thermal oxidation of Mn(II) nitrates BET and TEM analysis indicated that supramolecular [6], chemical coprecipitation route [7], electrolysis of Mn template plays an important role in the process of big (II) salts [8], and sol–gel method [5]. Among these specific surface area
