Prepared material exhibited micron sized particles with nano porous structure. Nano porous materials provide better electrolyte-electrode interface with larger specific area and are ideal candidates for energy storage applications. The morphology and crystalline structure of the prepared material was investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-Ray diffraction (XRD), and Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, (EDX). Furthermore, different ratios of Mn2O3/graphene nanocomposites were deposited on nickel foam substrate to study composition dependent electrochemical properties. The cyclic voltammetry (CV), galvanostatic charge-discharge (GCD) and complex impedance studies confirm excellent capacitive behaviour and specific capacitance for the prepared material.
