In part 3, a prototype was made that used raw MnO2 instead of the novel synthesized version. This was done primarily because a comparative analysis wanted to be done from the novel MnO2 and the raw MnO2. This would explain how successful the novel MnO2 electrode would be. To create this control prototype, every step was repeated from part 2 to create the final pseudo-supercapacitor. However, instead of using the novel MnO2 electrode, raw MnO2 was mixed into the binder solution and applied to the current collector strips. This was then repeated once more to create two control prototypes to give further validity to the results.
