Abstract

Mn₅O₈ nanoparticles (NPs) were obtained via the controlled oxidation of MnO NPs. The oxygen evolution reaction (OER) properties of Mn₅O₈ NPs were evaluated using cyclic voltammetry (CV). A current density of 5 mA/cm² was reached when 580 mV of overpotential was applied at pH 7.8. Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) analysis was conducted to investigate the origin of high OER activity of Mn₅O₈ NPs. From the EPR analysis, Mn³⁺ was found to be involved in the OER process of the Mn₅O₈ materials. (Chemical Equation Presented).
