Abstract
The most prominent and highly visible advantage attributed to supercapacitors of any type and application, beyond their most notable feature of high current capability, is their high stability in terms of lifetime, number of possible charge/discharge cycles or other stability-related properties. Unfortunately, actual devices show more or less pronounced deterioration of performance parameters during time and use. Causes for this in the material and component levels, as well as on the device level, have only been addressed and discussed infrequently in published reports. The present review attempts a complete coverage on these levels; it adds in modelling approaches and provides suggestions for slowing down ag(e)ing and degradation.

Abstract
Nanosized battery-type materials applied in electrochemical capacitors can effectively reduce a series of problems caused by low conductivity and large volume changes. However, this approach will lead to the charging and discharging process being dominated by capacitive behavior, resulting in a serious decline in the specific capacity of the material. By controlling the material particles to an appropriate size and a suitable number of nanosheet layers, the battery-type behavior can be retained to maintain a large capacity. Here, Ni(OH)2, which is a typical battery-type material, is grown on the surface of reduced graphene oxide to prepare a composite electrode. By controlling the dosage of the nickel source, the composite material with an appropriate Ni(OH)2 nanosheet size and a suitable number of layers was prepared. The high-capacity electrode material was obtained by retaining the battery-type behavior. The prepared electrode had a specific capacity of 397.22 mA h g-1 at 2 A g-1. After the current density was increased to 20 A g-1, the retention rate was as high as 84%. The prepared asymmetric electrochemical capacitor had an energy density of 30.91 W h kg-1 at a power density of 1319.86 W kg-1 and the retention rate could reach 79% after 20,000 cycles. We advocate an optimization strategy that retains the battery-type behavior of electrode materials by increasing the size of nanosheets and the number of layers, which can significantly improve the energy density while combining the advantage of the high rate capability of the electrochemical capacitor.

In-situ construction of binder-free MnO 2/MnSe heterostructure membrane for high-performance energy storage in pseudocapacitors. CHEMOSPHERE 2023; 313:137421.

Abstract
Manganese (Mn)-based oxides are considered suitable positive electrode materials for supercapacitors (SCs). However, their cycle stability and specific capacitance are significantly hindered by key restrictions such as structural instability and low conductivity. Herein, we demonstrated a novel nanorod (NR)-shaped heterostructured manganese dioxide/manganese selenide membrane (MnO2/MnSe) on carbon cloth (CC) (denoted as MnO2/MnSe-NR@CC) with a high aspect ratio by a straightforward and facile hydrothermal process. Experiments have demonstrated that doping selenium atoms to oxygen sites reduce electronegativity, increasing the intrinsic electronic conductivity of MnO2, decreasing electrostatic interactions with electrolyte ions, and thus boosting the reaction kinetics. Further, the selenium doping results in an amorphous surface with extensive oxygen defects, which contributed to the emergence of additional charge storage sites with pseudocapacitive characteristics. As expected, novel heterostructured MnO2/MnSe-NR@CC as an electrode for SC exhibits a high capacitance of 740.63 F/g at a current density of 1.5 A/g, with excellent cycling performance (93% capacitance retention after 5000 cycles). The MnO2/MnSe-NR@CC exhibited outstanding charge storage capability, dominating capacitive charge storage (84.6% capacitive at 6 mV/s). To examine the practical applications of MnO2/MnSe-NR@CC-ASC as a positive electrode, MnO2/MnSe-NR@CC//AC device was fabricated. The MnO2/MnSe-NR@CC//AC-ASC device performed exceptionally well, with a maximum capacitance of 166.66 F/g at 2 A/g, with a capacitance retention of 94%, after 500 GCD cycles. Additionally, it delivers an energy density of 75.06 Wh/kg at a power density of 1805.1 W/kg and maintains 55.044 Wh/kg at a maximum power density of 18,159 W/kg. This research sheds fresh information on the anionic doping method and has the potential to be applied to the synthesis of positive electrode materials for energy storage applications.

Abstract
Manganese dioxide (MnO2) has always been the ideal electrode material for supercapacitors due to its non-toxic nature and high theoretical capacity (1370 F g-1). Over the past few years, significant progress has been made in the development of high performance MnO2-based electrode materials. This review summarizes recent research progress in experimental, simulation and theoretical studies for the modification of MnO2-based electrode materials from different perspectives of morphology engineering, defect engineering and heterojunction engineering. Several main approaches to achieve enhanced electrochemical performance are summarized, respectively increasing the effective active site, intrinsic conductivity and structural stability. On this basis, the future problems and research directions of electrode materials are further envisaged, which provide theoretical guidance for the adequate design and synthesis of MnO2-based electrode materials for use in supercapacitors.

Abstract
The small energy density and chemomechanical degradation of layered manganese oxide limit practical application to sodium-ion batteries (SIBs). Typically, Na2Mn3O7 shows a low redox plateau at 2.1 V versus Na/Na+, and the oxygen redox reaction at a high voltage causes structural collapse. Herein, a Na vacancy-induced boron doping strategy is demonstrated to improve the properties. Boron is incorporated into selective sites in the lattice in the center of the MnO6 octahedral ring at the O-layer. Bonding of boron in the TM layer enhances the electrochemical activity of low-valence Mn, giving rise to two reversible redox peaks at 2.45 and 2.55 V to enhance the average redox voltage. At the same time, the O 2p chemical state becomes weaker around the Fermi level, thus suppressing oxygen overoxidation for the high charge state and strengthening the layered structure during the redox reactions. The reduced Mn-O covalency and small diffusion barrier energy stemming from bonding of boron in the oxygen layer produce excellent rate characteristics. Modulation of the Mn 3d and O 2p orbital in Na2Mn3O7 by Na vacancies leads to selective doping of boron at different sites, and our results reveal that it is an important strategy for studying transition-metal-oxide-layered electrode materials.

Abstract
Manganese oxides, as a type of two-dimensional (2D) material with high specific area and low cost, are considered promising energy storage materials. Here, we report novel AgMn2O4/Na0.55Mn2O4 nanosheets created by a popular liquid precipitation method with different AgNO3 contents, and their corresponding physical and electrochemical characterizations are performed. The results show that the ultra-thin Na0.55Mn2O4 nanosheets were combined with the AgMn2O4 nanoparticles and an enhancement in their specific capacity was observed compared to the pristine sheets. This electrode material displays a peak specific capacitance of 335.94 F g−1 at 1 A g−1. Using an asymmetric supercapacitor (ASC) assembled using a positive electrode made of AgMn2O4/Na0.55Mn2O4 nanosheets and a reduced graphene oxide (rGO) negative electrode, a high energy density of 65.5 Wh kg−1 was achieved for a power density of 775 W kg−1. The ASC showed good cycling stability with a capacitance value maintained at 90.2% after 10000 charge/discharge cycles. The excellent electrochemical performance of the device was ascribed to the heterostructures and the open space formed by the interconnected manganese oxide nanosheets, which resulted in a rapid and reversible faraday reaction in the interface and further enhanced its electrochemical kinetics.
