Controllable Synthesis of Mn<sub>3</sub>O<sub>4</sub> Nanowires and Application in the Treatment of Phenol at Room Temperature

Nanosized Mn<sub>3</sub>O<sub>4</sub> nanowires are prepared with KMnO<sub>4</sub> and ethanol in mild conditions by facile hydrothermal method. Hydrothermal reaction temperature is optimized to get uniform nanowires. The prepared Mn<sub>3</sub>O<su...
