Preparation and characterization of manganese-based and carbon-based nanomaterials for supercapasitors application

In this study, electrochemical materials, namely MnO2, reduced graphene oxide (rGO), porous carbon nanoparticles (PCNs), and rGO/MnO2 nanocomposite, were prepared in diverse morphologies such as nanoflowers (MnO2), nanosheets (rGO), and nanoparticles (carbon). Different physical and chemical charac...
