Morphology study of zinc anode prepared by electroplating method for rechargeable Zn-MnO battery.

Zinc electrodes prepared by electrodepositing zinc on a copper plate in ZnSO electrolyte were studied to determine the most suitable condition of zinc anode preparation for high performance Zn-MnO battery. Deposition of zinc on substrate material was confirmed using X-ray diffraction (XRD) measurement. Morphological characterization of zinc anode was performed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM).
