Abstract: MnOOH nanorods were synthesized hydrothermally at 130℃ for 16h, by using KMnO4 and N4(CH2)6 as main materials. The as-prepared samples were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscope (TEM), and high resolution transmission electron microscope (HRTEM). The effects of both molar ratios between reactants and reaction temperature on the products were investigated. The results show that the as-prepared MnOOH nanorods are with a monoclinic single phase, rod-like morphology and single crystalline nature.
