Synthesis and characterization of Co۳O۴ nanoparticles by calcination of a nano Cobalt coordination polymer

This article focuses on the simple synthetic preparation of Co۳O۴ nanoparticles by calcination of a new Co(II) bithiazole nanocoordination polymer and its conversion into at moderately elevated temperature. Co۳O۴ nanoparticles were obtained by direct thermolyses of compound at ۵۰۰°C under air atmosphere. The Co۳O۴ nanostructure was characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) and Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy. Synthesis of Co۳O۴ by using of bithiazole precursor is a novel approach in the literature. This study demonstrates that bithiazole nanocoordination polymer may be suitable precursors for the preparation of nanoscale materials.
