چکیده

Fe and Ni doped mesoporous Co3O4 (mCo3O4) catalysts were prepared and investigated for electrochemical oxygen evolution. The incorporation of Fe into mCo3O4 (Fe-mCo3O4) results in unusual synergistic effects via destruction of the bulk mesoporous structure and formation of slit-like pores. The Fe-mCo3O4 composite displayed a significantly enhanced catalytic activity for oxygen evolution.

Three-dimensional ordered mesoporous Co3O4 enhanced by Pd for oxygen evolution reaction

Considerable efforts have been devoted recently to design and fabrication of high performance and low cost electrocatalysts for oxygen evolution reaction (OER). However, catalytic activity of current electrocatalysts is usually restricted by high onset potential and limited active sites. Herein, we fabricated three-dimensional (3D) highly ordered mesoporous Pd-Co3O4 composite materials as excel...

One-step replication and enhanced catalytic activity for cathodic oxygen reduction of the mesostructured Co3O4/carbon composites.

Mesostructured Co3O4/C composites of high surface area have been synthesized via a one-step replica route by co-nanocasting cobalt and carbon precursors into mesoporous silica, in which the Co3O4 nanoparticles are homogeneously dispersed in the mesoporous structure of carbon substrates. The mesostructured composites showed relatively high catalytic activities for oxygen reduction reaction (ORR)...

Morphological Control of Mesoporosity and Nanoparticles within Co3O4-CuO Electrospun Nanofibers: Quantum Confinement and Visible Light Photocatalysis Performance.

The one-dimensional (1D) mesoporous and interconnected nanoparticles (NPs) enriched composite Co3O4-CuO nanofibers (NFs) in the ratio Co:Cu = 1/4 (Co3O4-CuO NFs) composite have been synthesized by electrospinning and calcination of mixed polymeric template. Not merely the mesoporous composite Co3O4-CuO NFs but also single mesoporous Co3O4 NFs and CuO NFs have been produced for comparison. The c...
