A polyaniline-intercalated layered manganese oxide nanocomposite prepared by an inorganic/organic interface reaction and its high electrochemical performance for Li storage

Polyaniline is intercalated into layered manganese oxide in situ, at an aqueous/organic interface. The prepared polymer intercalated manganese oxide has several novel characteristics - a swelled layered structure, a uniform mesoporous structure, a typical nanosize, and a high surface area, resulting in a high electrochemical performance for Li storage.
