Urchin-like MnO₂ microspheres with three different crystalline phases (α, γ and β) were prepared by hydrothermal and calcination methods, and the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) properties were systematically studied. The results of electrocatalytic tests indicated that the ORR activities of these three MnO₂ microspheres followed a sequence:α-MnO₂ > γ-MnO₂ > β-MnO₂. The α-MnO₂ sample exhibited the best electrocatalytic performance towards ORR with an onset potential of 0.92 V (vs RHE) and a potential of 0.77 V (vs RHE) at -3 mA·cm^-2. The superior ORR activity of urchin-like α-MnO₂ microspheres was mainly related to the larger amount of Mn³⁺, more surface oxygen vacancies and better conductivity. Specially, the Mn³⁺ could promote the dissociation of O-O bond and conduce to one-electron transfer to adsorbed oxygen, thereby accelerating the exchange of O₂^2-/OH^- that regarded as the rate-limiting step of the ORR.
