✦ Synopsis
A new dipolar binary liquid strategy has been developed to manganese oxide nanostructure's synthesis, in which different manganese oxide nanostructures have been easily obtained without using any templates or catalysts. It has been found that the reaction temperatures, alkali precipitators' concentrations and Mn 2þ concentrations play a significant role in our dipolar binary liquid technique. This novel approach can be potentially extended to fabricate 1D nanostructures of other anisotropic materials with interesting morphologies free of any surfactants. In addition, the research of products' electrochemical properties has demonstrated that manganese oxide nanomaterials maybe potentially applied as a material for electrochemical hydrogen storage.
