We studied romanechite, which is a kind of manganese dioxide with a (2 × 3) tunnel structure that includes cations and water, as a positive electrode material for rechargeable lithium batteries. We selected sodium and lithium-type romanechite, which are lighter than the already reported barium-type romanechite, and obtained large discharge capacities. When we first charged lithium-type romanechite, we obtained a large first discharge capacity of about 200 mAh g -1 . The discharge profile shape was unique with plateaus at 3.7, 3,0, and 2.5 V (vs. Li/Li + ). The cyclability was poor when we discharged the material to 2.0 V using the 2.5 V plateau. However, by using only the 3.7 and 3.0 V plateaus, we were able to cycle it with little capacity loss and obtain a rechargeable capacity of about 80 mAh g -1 . X-ray diffraction analysis showed that there was a crystallinity change at the 2.5 V plateau. We consider this change to be the reason for the poor cyclability of lithium-type romanechite.
