Abstract

The morphology may significantly influence the properties and applications of materials, thus the ability to tune the structure, size, and shape of inorganic materials is an important goal in obtaining nanomaterials with novel properties. A novel and facile synthesis route for the manufacture of porous Co3O4 is reported, utilizing cobalt nitrate as the inorganic source and triblock copolymer F127 as the morphology-directing agent by the solvothermal method. X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), N2-sorption and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were used to characterize the as-prepared Co3O4. The possible formation mechanism of the porous Co3O4 was discussed.
