Abstract

The concentrationsof soluble Mn(Ⅲ) species,during the reduction ofelectrolytic MnO_(2) (EMD)in alkaline solution,have been monitored in situ by UV-visible spectroscopy. The concentration of Mn(Ⅲ) ion in solution changes with discharge time.The first electron discharge process of EMD can be described by three different steps: 1) the reduction of Mn~(4+)ions on the surface of EMD particles and the structural defect regions within the EMD,2) the reduction of Mn~(4+)ions in ramsdellite,3)the reduction of Mn~(4+)ions in pyrolusite. During the second electron discharge of EMD, the soluble Mn(Ⅲ) is reduced to Mn(Ⅱ) , then Mn(OH)_(2)and Mn_(3)O_(4)are formed.
