Mg2−xMnxSiO4 compound obtained via sol–gel method: structural, morphological and electrochemical properties

Prospective cathode materials Mg2-xMnxSiO4 (0.0 ≤ x ≤ 0.4) for magnesium-ion secondary battery were synthesized using sol gel method. Crystalline structure, morphology, particle size, electrical and electrochemical properties of the samples were investigated. X-ray diffraction patterns of the materi...
