Abstract: δ-MnO2 with layered structure is favorable for ion diffusion and charge storage transfer. However, defects such as poor conductivity, small specific surface area and structure agglomeration, limit its electrochemical performance. This work proposed an efficient auxiliary process, in which the agglomeration phenomenon of δ-MnO2 was inhibited by the high-energy mechanical impact force of ball milling, making the particle size of δ-MnO2 with dense block structure significantly reduced, the order of the structure disturbed, and more active sites exposed to facilitate the rapid oxidation-reduction reaction. Thus its constraint capacitance and diffusion capacitance were enhanced. By studying the crystal structure, morphology and elemental composition of materials, the influence mechanism of ball milling on electrochemical energy storage of materials was explored. Electrochemical test results show that δ-MnO2 after ball milling has better electrochemical performance. When the current density is 0.5 A·g-1, the specific capacitance is 237.5 F·g-1, which increases by 250% compared with that of the δ-MnO2 nanosheets without ball mil-ling. After 10 000 cycles at 0.5 A·g-1 current density, δ-MnO2 can still maintain 90.4% of the initial capacitance. The comprehensive evaluation of δ-MnO2 by cyclic charge-discharge tests shows that the assisted treatment of δ-MnO2 by ball milling is an effective means to improve its energy storage performance.
