“…The absorption peak of the FTIR spectra between 3700 cm −1 and 3200 cm −1 were assigned to the stretching vibration of O–H, attributed to inner surface hydroxyl groups. 34–36 The band at 1627 cm −1 arose from the bending vibrations of H 2 O, 36 the bands around 465–467 cm −1 were ascribed to Mn–O stretching vibration, 36,37 while the peaks at 1373–1375 cm −1 were attributed to the bending vibrations of hydroxyl groups attached with the Mn atoms (Mn–OH), 38,39 which is consistent with the peaks of pure δ-MnO 2 (Fig. S3†).…”
Thermally activated natural low-grade manganese ore was used as an efficient and stable catalyst for enhancing the activation of PMS through increased charge transfer, pore size and acidic sites.

“…The MnO 2 sub-microspheres were synthesized with minor modifications based on a previous report. 49 12 mmol of MnCl 2 ·4H 2 O and 8 mmol of KMnO 4 were mixed in 40 mL of deionized water and continuously stirred until a homogenous solution was obtained. The solution was then transferred into a 50 mL stainless steel Teflon-lined autoclave and heated at 170 °C for 12 h. After cooling the autoclave to room temperature, centrifugation was used to collect the remaining precipitate, which was then washed with water and ethanol.…”

“…In environment-cleaning applications, different kinds of semiconductor compounds play an important role in the photocatalytic removal of dyes [ 229 ]. In recent years, MnO 2 -carbon materials have shown excellent performances in the photocatalytic degradation of organic dyes, which has attracted extensive research by researchers [ 239 , 240 , 241 , 242 , 243 , 244 , 245 , 246 , 247 , 248 , 249 ] ( Table 4 ). Park et al [ 250 ] synthesized PANI-rGO-MnO 2 ternary composites by polymerizing aniline with rGO and incorporating MnO 2 .…”
Section: Applications Of Photocatalytic Technology In Water Treatmentmentioning
Water pollution is one of the most important problems in the field of environmental protection in the whole world, and organic pollution is a critical one for wastewater pollution problems. How to solve the problem effectively has triggered a common concern in the area of environmental protection nowadays. Around this problem, scientists have carried out a lot of research; due to the advantages of high efficiency, a lack of secondary pollution, and low cost, photocatalytic technology has attracted more and more attention. In the past, MnO2 was seldom used in the field of water pollution treatment due to its easy agglomeration and low catalytic activity at low temperatures. With the development of carbon materials, it was found that the composite of carbon materials and MnO2 could overcome the above defects, and the composite had good photocatalytic performance, and the research on the photocatalytic performance of MnO2-carbon materials has gradually become a research hotspot in recent years. This review covers recent progress on MnO2-carbon materials for photocatalytic water treatment. We focus on the preparation methods of MnO2 and different kinds of carbon material composites and the application of composite materials in the removal of phenolic compounds, antibiotics, organic dyes, and heavy metal ions in water. Finally, we present our perspective on the challenges and future research directions of MnO2-carbon materials in the field of environmental applications.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
