In this study, a novel α-MnO2(OMS-2) material with long and uniform nanofibers was synthesized by morphological and phase transitions from δ-MnO2(OL-1) under a hydrothermal reaction. We systematically investigated the catalytic performances of OMS-2 and OL-1 for the activation of PMS (peroxymonosulfate) to degrade 4-nitrophenol (4-NP) in water. According to the results from Brunauer Emmett Teller (BET), thermo gravimetric analyzer (TGA), H2-temperature programmed reduction (H2-TPR), cyclic voltammetry, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and density-functional theory (DFT) calculation, OMS-2 has a larger BET area, more active sites, better adsorption ability, a faster electron transfer rate, and more multiple valence states of Mn than OL-1. These results also well illustrate OMS-2 has much better catalytic performance than OL-1. The results of the electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and the radical quantification experiments confirmed that sulfate radicals (SO4radical dot−) and hydroxyl radicals (radical dotOH) were the main oxidants and OMS-2 has better radical generation capability than OL-1. The LC-MS results indicated that there were two routes for the degradation of 4-NP and the degradation mechanism of 4-NP in the OMS-2/PMS system was similar to that in the OL-1/PMS system. Finally, we proposed the PMS activation mechanism, the formation mechanism of radicals, and the degradation mechanism of 4-NP based on the two different kinds of MnO2with different morphologies.
