Research Topic:
Preparation and determination of catalytic properties of Mn-Oxide nano
particle.
BACKGROUND
Manganese is the tenth most abundent metal in the earth’s layer and is used
and sediments, Manganese oxides are extremely dynamic oxides (1) and its
same way, the catalytic degradation properties of these oxides have been
chemical reactions e.g. the oxidation of methane and carbon monoxide, the
gases (NO) far below what can be achieved without catalysts. However, the
catalytic properties of Mn-Oxide nano particle have not been studies in great
detail. Very few studies of this kind have been performed even in the
technologically sophisticated countries. This research project purpose is to
study the preparation of the Mn-oxide nano particles, as they have greater
surface area and may be more proficient & selective catalyst for the
oxygen mobility and the amount of surface adsorbed oxygen species. In the
available in the literature and, after that, it catalytic properties for the

MnO2) can be prepared. However, we will discuss only two of them because of
the simplicity, cost factor and high product yield. In the same way, when we
heated manganese oxide in the presence of air above 1000degree centigrade. [4]
then Mn3O4 are produced. Significant research has centered on making nano-
crystalline Mn3O4 and different syntheses that involves in the oxidation of MnII
or decreasing of MnVI.
Preparation of Crystalline MnO2
put into a beaker. For 30 min, the solution would be magnetically stirred
distilled water up to 80% of the total volume. The autoclave will be sealed
temperature. After that, the brown products will be filtered off. In the
distilled water and absolute ethanol, it will be washed for some time and
then the air will be dried at 70ºC for 24h. The manufactured goods which
2. -MnO nano particles can be prepared with simple refluxing route using
flasks with condenser at 160 oC for 24 hours. The dark brown material at
the bottom will be removed, wash using dialysis tubes will be used for
further studies.
3. Another method is the combustion, in which 50% solution manganese
nitrate is first evaporated using 100W electric bulb in fuming hood and
then the solution is transferred after 3 days to electric oven at 200 oC. The
remains which has got is washed first with distilled water and then with
ethanol.

have greater surface area and high surface charge density; therefore, it is
of the organic compounds such as acryl amide, various pesticides, Para Nitro
Phenols, other phenolic compounds, dyes like ethylene blue are continuously
adding into the biosphere and are causing water/soil pollution. All these
compounds are highly toxic and need to be removed or changes into another
change these compounds into other compounds which are non-toxic or less
toxic. Likewise, these oxides have a lot of active site and can shown sorption
properties as well. Now-a-days, Metal oxides such as MnO 2 and FeO Nano
Mn oxide have been used effectively as catalyst. It is evident that the Mn oxide
catalyst has the most active redox behavior favored, the manufacturing of
highly condensed product (e.g. aniline etc) but the catalyst, having the slightest
active redox behavior showed meager catalytic activity. It was suggested that
the catalytic and the redox behavior of Mn 3O4 might be connected to the Jahn-
with other metal and metal oxide catalyst reported in the literature.
In the current years, a significant attention has been paid to metal oxide nano
pathogenic activities. Yet, there has been done a very little work in studying the
to the cell surfaces resulting infections. The high surface/volume ratio and
following higher surface area of the nano particles not only allows higher
