چکیده
We, for the first time, report that many Mn oxides (Mn3O4, α-Mn2O3, β-MnO2, CaMnO3, Ca2Mn3O8, CaMn3O6 and CaMn4O8) in the presence of cerium(IV) ammonium nitrate, in the water oxidation, convert to layered Mn oxide. This layered Mn oxide is an efficient water oxidizing catalyst.

The influence of environmental conditions on kinetics of arsenite oxidation by manganese-oxides
BACKGROUND Manganese-oxides are one of the most important minerals in soil due to their widespread distribution and high reactivity. Despite their invaluable role in cycling many redox sensitive elements, numerous unknowns remain about the reactivity of different manganese-oxide minerals under varying conditions in natural systems. By altering temperature, pH, and concentration of arsenite we w...
متن کاملThe study of Oxidation Behavior of AISI 439 Steel at the Presence of Manganese Oxides for the Application in Solid Oxide Fuel Cells
Long–term stability and oxidation resistance of AISI 439 ferritic stainless steel used as interconnects in solid oxide fuel cells can be improved by use of a protective coating. In this study the pack cementation method was employed to coat AISI 439 ferritic stainless steel with manganese. Isothermal oxidation was conducted at 800 ºC for 200 hours in static air to investigate the role of coatin...
متن کاملWater oxidation by manganese oxides formed from tetranuclear precursor complexes: the influence of phosphate on structure and activity.
Two types of manganese oxides have been prepared by hydrolysis of tetranuclear Mn(iii) complexes in the presence or absence of phosphate ions. The oxides have been characterized structurally using X-ray absorption spectroscopy and functionally by O2 evolution measurements. The structures of the oxides prepared in the absence of phosphate are dominated by di-μ-oxo bridged manganese ions that for...
متن کاملRegulating proton-coupled electron transfer for efficient water splitting by manganese oxides at neutral pH
Manganese oxides have been extensively investigated as model systems for the oxygen-evolving complex of photosystem II. However, most bioinspired catalysts are inefficient at neutral pH and functional similarity to the oxygen-evolving complex has been rarely achieved with manganese. Here we report the regulation of proton-coupled electron transfer involved in water oxidation by manganese oxides...
متن کاملCatalytic activity of NiMnO3 for visible light-driven and electrochemical water oxidation.
NiMnO3 was found to be an efficient catalyst for light-driven water oxidation using [Ru(bpy)3](2+) and S2O8(2-) as a photosensitiser and a sacrificial oxidant, respectively. NiMnO3 exhibited remarkably high catalytic activity in comparison with manganese oxides and nickel oxide. For electrochemical water oxidation, the highest catalytic current was also obtained with NiMnO3 among the manganese ...
