Abstract

The novel peanut-like Co3O4 were successfully synthesized through a simple solvothermal method employing cobalt nitrate, ethylene glycol, hexamethylenetetramine, and sodium dodecylsulphonate as the starting materials at different synthetic temperatures. The composition, morphology and structure of the product were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The results showed that the final product was the cubic spinel of Co3O4 with peanut-like morphology. The thermogravimetric analysis technique indicated the peanut-like Co3O4 enhanced catalytic performance for ammonium perchlorate and is a promising candidate for catalytic application.
