The application of manganese oxide is limited for its difficulty to prevent the generated particles from aggregating. In our study, an optimized polyvinyl polypropylene‐assisted chemical coprecipitation method was adopted to improve the dispersion of manganese oxide particles, which was also facilely scalable in large‐scale production of materials. The results confirmed that both adding polyvinyl pyrrolidone and conducting thermal treatment for manganese oxide were effective methods to improve the electrochemical properties of manganese oxide.
