the preparation of nanostructure type manganese oxide and cobalt oxide materials with the smallest particle size is reported here. the nanorod manganese oxide and cobalt oxide nanotube were prepared via a sol-gel reaction in reverse micelles from kmno4 and cocl2 with respectively source at room-temperature. the structure and surface morphology of the obtained manganese oxide were studied by mea...

Cobalt oxide (Co3O4) nanoparticles were successfully prepared by thermal decomposition of cobalt hydroxide synthesized from cobalt acetate, ammonium hydroxide and 10% glycerol. The cobalt oxide nanoparticles calcined at 450 °C were characterized by using XRD. The XRD confirms the crystallinity and crystal structure of the sample. It also shows that the diffraction peak are broadened which revea...

Scanning electron microscopy, linear sweep voltammetry, chronoamperometry, and in situ surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy were used to investigate the electrochemical oxygen evolution reaction (OER) occurring on cobalt oxide films deposited on Au and other metal substrates. All experiments were carried out in 0.1 M KOH. A remarkable finding is that the turnover frequency for the OER exhibited ...

catalysts with the formula of laco(1+x)o(3+δ), where 0 ≤ x ≤ 1, were studied for oxidation of co and c2h6 in a synthetic exhaust gas, comprising 6.0 % co and 0.2 % c2h6 in ar. ethane was selected as a model for hydrocarbons in the exhaust gas. the performance of catalysts is correlated to their properties, particularly their redox in oxidizing and reducing atmospheres. xrd patterns show perovsk...

sphere-like shaped cobalt oxide nanoparticles (co3o4) were synthesized by a simple wet chemical method using cobalt chloride as precursor and cetyl trimethylammonium bromide (ctab) as surfactant. their structural and surface morphologial properties were characterized by high resolution transmission electron microscopy (hrtem), field emission scanning electron microscopy (fesem) and x-ray diffra...

The preparation of polystyrene-coated cobalt oxide nanowires is reported via the colloidal polymerization of polymer-coated ferromagnetic cobalt nanoparticles (PS-CoNPs). Using a combination of dipolar nanoparticle assembly and a solution oxidation of preorganized metallic colloids, interconnected nanoparticles of cobalt oxide spanning micrometers in length were prepared. The colloidal polymeri...

nanosized metal oxides dispersed polymer composites constitute a fascinating class of polymer composite materials. synthesis of such composite materials through solvent casting enhances the polymer synthetic technology. solvent casting method was used to prepare cobalt oxide (co3o4) dispersed poly (methyl methacrylate) (pmma) nano composite. x-ray diffraction tool is used to know the structural...

We demonstrated that single-crystalline cobalt monoxide (CoO) hollow spheres and octahedra could be selectively synthesized via thermal decomposition of cobalt(II) acetylacetonate in 1-octadecene solvent in the presence of oleic acid and oleylamine. The morphologies and sizes of as-prepared CoO nanocrystals could be controlled by adjusting the reaction parameters. Cobalt oxide (Co(3)O(4)) hollo...

an extensive study of fischer-tropsch synthesis (fts) on alumina-supported cobalt catalysts promoted with different amounts of ruthenium and rhenium is reported. up to 2 wt% of promoters, are added to the catalyst by coimpregnation. the catalysts are characterized by different methods including: bet physisorption, x-ray diffraction, hydrogen chemisorption, and temperature-programmed reduction. ...
