Abstract

AbstractMesoporous and hierarchical manganese dioxide (MnO2) nanoplates/nanowalls were integrated into the nickel/polyethylene terephthalate conductive fabric (CF) by a simple electrochemical deposition method. By applying an external cathodic voltage to the seed‐layer‐coated CF in aqueous solution, hexagonal MnO2 nanoplates were synthesized and then transformed into hydrous MnO2 by oxidation in air. At an external cathodic voltage of –3 V, such MnO2 nanoplates could be densely and uniformly covered over the overall surface of CF. Additionally, their shape was changed to a nanowall‐like construction by the reaction with hydrogen peroxide, leading to a more mesoporous and hierarchical surface morphology.
