  • The α-MnO2 cathode material was prepared using a simple one-step hydrothermal method, and the effect of preparation temperature on its morphology and electrochemical performance was investigated. The experimental results indicated that α-MnO2 synthesized at different temperatures all exhibited a nanowire structure. It was found that the α-MnO2 prepared at 180 ℃ exhibited superior electrochemical performance: at a current density of 0.1 A·g-1, it achieved a discharge specific capacity of 229.2 mAh·g-1, which was higher than those prepared at other temperatures, and after 110 cycles, its capacity remained at 90 mAh·g-1; at a current density of 1 A·g-1, after 1 000 cycles, it still maintained a discharge specific capacity of 38 mAh·g-1. Additionally, its charge transfer resistance was significantly lower than that of samples prepared at other temperatures.
