Formation of CoAl2O4 Nanoparticles via Low-Temperature Solid-State Reaction of Fine Gibbsite and Cobalt Precursor
Nanocrystalline cobalt aluminate (CoAl2O4) was synthesized by the solid-state reaction method with cobalt chloride hexahydrate (CoCl2 · 6H2O) as the source of Co and gibbsite (Al(OH)3) as the source of Al, respectively. The effects of particle size of the starting fine gibbsite (0.6 and 13 μm) and c...
