Hydrothermal synthesis of manganese phosphate/graphene foam composite for electrochemical supercapacitor applications.

Manganese phosphate (Mn(PO) hexagonal micro-rods and (Mn(PO) with different graphene foam (GF) mass loading up to 150mg were prepared by facile hydrothermal method. The characterization of the as-prepared samples proved the successful synthesis of Mn(PO) hexagonal micro-rods and Mn(PO)/GF composites. It was observed that the specific capacitance of Mn(PO)/GF composites with different GF mass loading increases with mass loading up to 100mg, and then decreases with increasing mass loading up to 150mg.
