Precipitation synthesis and characterization of cobalt molybdates nanostructures

چکیده مقاله

CoMoO4 nanorods have been successfully synthesized by precipitation method using Co(C7H5O2)2.4H2O and (NH4)6Mo7O24.4H2O as starting materials. The effect of some parameters including reaction time, temperature, concentration, and surfactant were investigated to reach optimum condition. The as-synthesized nanostructures were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmittance electron microscopy (TEM), photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectra, and energy dispersive X-ray microanalysis (EDX). Facile preparation and separation are important features of this route. This work has provided a general, simple, and effective method to control the composition and morphology of CoMoO4 in aqueous solution, which revealed potential new insight into inorganic synthesis methodology.
