Abstract

To manufacture nanoscale materials with high surface density, achieving average pore size and volume requires energy-intensive and time-consuming operations. We present a straightforward rapid, and quick approach for synthesizing citric acid coated manganese ferrite (MnFe₂O₄) nanoparticles through chemical co-precipitation with 1 M NaOH as an oxidative solution. The citric acid coated MnFe₂O₄nanoparticles were studied by powder X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and scanning electron microscopy. The powder X-ray diffraction results confirm the spinel structure of MnFe₂O₄based on face centred cubic lattice parameters. The Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy results confirm the vibrational modes of citric acid coated MnFe₂O₄. The scanning electron microscope results of the as synthesised citric acid coated MnFe₂O₄product had a spherical form with an average diameter of 20 nm. The electrochemical properties of MnFe₂O₄ nanoparticles were studied using cyclic voltammetry, charge-discharge, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy using 1M NaOH as a electrolyte. Citric-acid coated MnFe₂O₄ nanoparticles shows pseudo-capacitance behaviour properties and delivers a specific capacitance value of about 381 F g^-1at 1 A g^-1 specific current with 15% retention rate at high specific currents. The specific capacitance remained at 92% after 10,000 cycles at a specific current of 2 A g⁻¹ which is clearly showed.
