以自制活性炭(AC)为载体, (NH4)2S2O8为氧化剂、MnSO4为还原剂和锰源、(NH4)2SO4为模板试剂, 通过原位水热沉积法制备了α-MnO2/AC系列复合电极材料. 分别采用X 射线衍射、扫描电子显微镜、N2吸附/脱附等方法对试样的晶型结构、形貌、比表面积和孔结构进行了表征; 用循环伏安、恒流充放电和交流阻抗等电化学方法研究了材料的电化学性质. 结果表明, 在MnSO4浓度为0.075 mol•L-1的水热条件下, 获得了薄层晶状α-MnO2/AC复合材料. 在电流密度为3 mA•cm-2时, 该材料电化学性能优异, 比电容为374.5 F•g-1, 较沉积前AC的252.7 F•g-1有显著提高, 增幅为48.2%; α-MnO2/AC复合电极有良好的充放电特性和循环稳定性, 经 1000 次恒流充放电测试, 容量保持率达到 95%.

The composite electrode materials of α-MnO2/activated carbon (α-MnO2/AC) were prepared by in-situ hydrothermal deposition using ammonium persulfate as oxidants, manganese sulfate as precursors, ammonium sulfate as templates and self-made activated carbon as supports. X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and nitrogen adsorption-desorption at 77 K were used to investigate the crystal structure, morphology, specific surface area and porosity of the composites, respectively. Their electrochemical properties were evaluated by cyclic voltammetry, galvanostatic charge-discharge and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The results showed that crystalline α-MnO2 was well deposited on the AC to produce thin layer crystal α-MnO2/AC composite material at the optimal MnSO4 concentration of 0.075 mol• L-1 in the synthetic process. The specific capacitance of the composite could be as high as 374.5 F•g-1, 48.2% higher than that of pure AC electrode. The α-MnO2/AC composite electrode had high stability and the capacity retention was of 95% after a 1000-cycle charge-discharge.
