Abstract

ABSTRACT This study investigated the impact of precursor solution temperature on the electrodeposition of MnO2 material, which were prepared on a nickel substrate using the electrodeposition method under varying precursor solution temperatures of 25°C, 40°C, 50°C, and 60°C, respectively. These materials were subsequently employed as anodes in lithium-ion batteries to study their electrochemical performance. The results indicate that an increase in temperature induces preferential aggregation and growth of MnO2 nanosheets towards specific orientations, which is advantageous for enhancing the electrochemical performance of MnO2 electrode materials. Notably, the electrode material prepared at a solution temperature of 50°C exhibited optimal performance. Additionally, the charge transfer impedance was lower, which could be attributed to the growth of the highly conductive β-MnO2 main phase under 50°C. This study presents a novel approach for effectively improving electrodeposited nanomaterials, offering insights into the optimisation of electrochemical performance.
