Abstract

High energy demand has directed the present-day research towards synthesis and applications of heterostructured nanomaterials such as molybdenum oxysalts over mono-structured nanomaterials. Molybdenum oxysalt is a promising anode material for lithium ion batteries because of its high theoretical lithium storage capacity (998 mAh g−1) and flexible composition. Engineering the morphology and porosity of a material has proven to be a productive approach towards enhancing its performances. Here in, we have demonstrated a one pot synthesis of mesoporous MnMoO4 nanorods and its enhanced electrochemical performance for Li-ion battery anode. Several physiochemical techniques have been used to validate the desired properties and purity of the synthesized material. It exhibits high lithiation capacity of 1050 mAh g−1 and stability over 100 cycles at 0.5 C. The enhanced performance is attributed to its structural stability and mesoporous nature.
