Manganese oxide can oxidize formaldehyde, however, how to control the valence states of manganese is the key to further improve the removal efficiency. We have successfully prepared porous manganese oxide nanowires(Mn OxNWs) with large surface area and multiple valence states of manganese using simple electrospinning followed by thermal calcination and potassium permanganate solution post-treatment(C/S process). The contents of trivalent and tetravalent manganese increased significantly after C/S process. Moreover, the composition of silver oxide coated silver nanowires(Ag@Ag_(2) O NWs) is realized by assistance with oxygen plasma, which further enhanced high valence manganese. The formaldehyde removal efficiency by Ag@Ag_(2) O–Mn Oxcomposite nanowires can reach 93.7%. The high-efficient catalytic activity is confirmed to attribute to the higher surface area of composite nanowires, the high-valence manganese and the silver oxide for oxidation of formaldehyde.展开更多
