Abstract:
Three-dimensional (3D) cobalt oxide (Co3O4) flowers with different shapes were prepared by a facile hydrothermal synthesis. The morphology of Co3O4 precursors has adjusted obviously from acicular shapes to acicular-sheet-like flowers and then to sheet-like flowers by changing reaction temperature and solution concentration. After annealing, as-prepared precursors were converted into 3D flower-like Co3O4 samples and their morphology and sizes were well preserved. The effect of experimental conditions on growth of Co3O4 precursors was explored and the growth mechanism was proposed. Moreover, the electrochemical properties of various Co3O4 with different shapes were tested. The result of electrochemical investigation indicates that 3D flower-like Co3O4 assembled by sheets exhibited high capacitance and excellent cycling performance.

Abstract:
Co3O4 nanoflakes/N-doped graphene (NG) was synthesized through a facile two-step synthesis route. The phase composition and morphology of the products were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectrometer (EDS). It has been found that introduction of NG has effects on the morphology of Co3O4 and leads to a well distribution of Co3O4 nanoflakes. The electrochemical properties of as-synthesized materials were measured by cyclic voltammetry (CV), galvanostatic charge/discharge tests and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The composite presents an enhanced supercapacitor performance than the pristine Co3O4 nanoflakes, mainly due to the strong synergistic effect of the NG and Co3O4.

Abstract:
Abstract Hydrogen production from water electrolysis is an important measure to achieve clean and sustainable energy in the future. Oxygen evolution reaction is a half-reaction of water electrolysis process, and its efficiency has a great influence on the overall reaction. The morphology of the catalyst has a great influence on the catalytic performance of the catalyst for oxygen evolution, but the mechanism of the effect of the morphology on the activity is still unclear. Therefore, the influence of the catalyst morphology on the catalytic activity needs to be studied urgently. Co3O4 is widely used in oxygen evolution reactions. Therefore, we took three Co3O4 with different morphologies as the research objects to study the effect of morphology on the oxygen evolution activity of Co3O4. The results show that among the three different morphologies of cobalt tetroxide, the Co3O4 with porous sheet morphology exhibits the best oxygen evolution activity (η10 = 1.54 V in 1 M KOH). The reason for the better activity of cobalt tetroxide with the morphology of the hollow sheet may be due to its larger specific surface area and more active sites, which reduces the reaction electron transfer barrier. Our work sheds new light on the design of novel oxygen evolution electrocatalysts.

Abstract:
The aggregation morphology of anode materials plays a vital role in achieving high performance lithium-ion batteries. Herein, Co3O4 anode materials with different aggregation morphologies were successfully prepared by modulating the morphology of precursors with different cobalt sources by the mild coprecipitation method. The fabricated Co3O4 can be flower-like, spherical, irregular, and urchin-like. Detailed investigation on the electrochemical performance demonstrated that flower-like Co3O4 consisting of nanorods exhibited superior performance. The reversible capacity maintained 910.7 mAh·g−1 at 500 mA·g−1 and 717 mAh·g−1 at 1000 mA·g−1 after 500 cycles. The cyclic stability was greatly enhanced, with a capacity retention rate of 92.7% at 500 mA·g−1 and 78.27% at 1000 mA·g−1 after 500 cycles. Electrochemical performance in long-term storage and high temperature conditions was still excellent. The unique aggregation morphology of flower-like Co3O4 yielded a reduction of charge-transfer resistance and stabilization of electrode structure compared with other aggregation morphologies.

Abstract:
In the present paper, simple hydrothermal and solid-state methods are reported for the synthesis of metal chalcogenide (ZnSe), metal oxide (Co3O4) and their nano-heterostructure (ZnSe/Co3O4 3:1, 1:1 and 1:3 ratios by weight), while their photocatalytic efficiencies are also investigated. The X-ray diffraction results corroborate the good crystallinity and purity of all synthesized products, i.e., ZnSe, Co3O4 and their nanocomposites. The scanning electron micro-images of ZnSe show a mixed morphology of nanoparticles (≈16 nm), including spherical and distorted cubes, while Co3O4 has a worm-like morphology (≈20 × 50 nm). The EDX results show that all the elements are present in accordance with their anticipated amounts in the products. The UV/visible absorption spectrum of ZnSe depicts a sharp absorption at around 480 nm, while Co3O4 demonstrates two prominent peaks, 510 nm and 684 nm. The prepared samples were employed for the photocatalytic degradation of Congo red dye and the nano-heterostructure (ZnSe/Co3O4 3:1) shows an exceptional photocatalytic degradation efficiency of 96%. This enhanced photocatalytic activity was due to the synergic effect of ZnSe and Co3O4 that reduced the electron/hole recombination and caused suitable bandgap alignment.

Abstract:
Co3O4 nanoparticles (NP) have been successfully formed using Moringa oleifera leaves extract (MLE) through two phases’s system of hexane–water. Co3O4 NP was further characterized using UV-Vis DRS, FT-IR, TEM, SEM-EDX, XRD and UV-Vis spectrophotometer. FTIR spectra of Co3O4 NP had strong absorption bands at wavenumbers of 538 and 670 cm-1. The bandgap energy value of Co3O4 NP was 1.43 eV. In addition, the characterization of SEM and TEM showed that the morphology of Co3O4 NP was in the spheres form with particle sizes around 73 nm. The photocatalytic activity of Co3O4 NP was carried out for methylene blue (MB) photodegradation. Co3O4 NP had photodegradation activity against MB under visible light irradiation of 91% for 120 min.

Abstract:
Co3O4 catalysts of cube and sphere shapes were prepared by one-step hydrothermal synthesis with different controlled amounts of Co(NO3)2·6H2O and NaOH. The morphological effects on both physicochemical properties and catalytic activities of vinyl chloride oxidation were investigated by material characterization and performance evaluation. The obtained results showed that the morphology, resulting in the exposure difference of crystal planes, significantly affected the catalytic property. The catalytic activity for vinyl chloride oxidation followed a descending order of Co3O4 cube (Co3O4-c) > Co3O4 sphere (Co3O4-s) > Co3O4 commercial (Co3O4-com). The cube-shaped Co3O4 presented higher catalytic activity and stability than Co3O4 spheres despite their similar crystallographic structures as well as physicochemical and redox properties. Accordingly, the different catalytic behaviors should be attributed to a morphological effect. The Co3O4 cube with a preferential exposure of (001) plane presented higher abundance of surface Co2+ cations and adsorbed oxygen species, which acted as the active sites responsible for the improvement of its catalytic activity.

Abstract:
Nanocrystalline cobalt oxide Co3O4 and the ZnO / Co3O4 composite were obtained by the chemical bath deposition method followed by thermal annealing. It has been shown that the growth mechanism of cobalt carbonates changes dramatically in the presence of zinc oxide particles during synthesis, as a result, the phase composition, morphology, and material properties change. The conductive layers formed from the ZnO / Co3O4 composite have an electrical resistance at room temperature that is more than three orders of magnitude lower than the resistance of the Co3O4 layers, and ZnO / Co3O4 composite gas sensors showed significantly higher gas sensitivity at room temperature than that of control cobalt oxide sensors.

Abstract:
Herein, this report uses Co3O4 nanoneedles to decorate Mo-Co3O4 nanosheets over Ni foam, which were fabricated by the hydrothermal route, in order to create a supercapacitor material which is compared with its counterparts. The surface morphology of the developed material was investigated through scanning electron microscopy and the structural properties were evaluated using XRD. The charging storage activities of the electrode materials were evaluated mainly by cyclic voltammetry and galvanostatic charge-discharge investigations. In comparison to binary metal oxides, the specific capacities for the composite Co3O4@Mo-Co3O4 nanosheets and Co3O4 nano-needles were calculated to be 814, and 615 C g−1 at a current density of 1 A g−1, respectively. The electrode of the composite Co3O4@Mo-Co3O4 nanosheets displayed superior stability during 4000 cycles, with a capacity of around 90%. The asymmetric Co3O4@Mo-Co3O4//AC device achieved a maximum specific energy of 51.35 Wh Kg−1 and power density of 790 W kg−1. The Co3O4@Mo-Co3O4//AC device capacity decreased by only 12.1% after 4000 long GCD cycles, which is considerably higher than that of similar electrodes. All these results reveal that the Co3O4@Mo-Co3O4 nanocomposite is a very promising electrode material and a stabled supercapacitor.

Abstract:
In this project, the TMP method was employed to produce “active sites.” These active sites are for influencing and controlling the Co₃O₄ growth. One of the aims was to investigate what effect the grafting of the molecular precursor has on the nature and distribution of active sites on the various support materials. The second aim was to investigate the effect an increase in molecular precursor loading, in various impregnation steps, has on the nature and distribution of the active sites. The third aim was to investigate the effect of the steric constraints of ligand groups, by changing the molecular precursor, on the nature and distribution of active sites. The fourth aim was to use the different aspects discussed above and apply them to investigate what effect the above-mentioned modifications have on Co₃O₄ morphology. While another aim was to investigated what effect varying the quantity of Co(NO₃)₂•6H₂O has on Co₃O₄ morphology. Lastly, we investigated what effect varying the impregnation procedure and calcination temperature have on the Co₃O₄ morphology. The effect the support has on the phase of titanium molecular precursor was investigated using molecular precursor, ⁱPrOTi[OSi(O[superscript(t)]Bu₃)]₃. The supports used were Silica 922, NanoDur, Aerosil 200, Stöber spherical silica, SBA-15, mod MCM-41 and sMCM-41. The molecular precursor ⁱPrOTi[OSi(O[superscript(t)]Bu₃)]₃ was revealed to be in the orthorhombic TiO₂ with space group P(cab), normal brookite lattice, on Silica 922 after calcination but only an isolated area displaying this morphology. Generally we do not observe any TiO₂ on the support, which indicates that we have produce site-isolated sites, suggesting the TMP method has been successful on all of the various supports. The emphasis is placed on the effect of this molecular precursor and the respective support has on the Co₃O₄ morphology in Chapter 3. In this Chapter, a unique morphology was observed on Silica 922 which showed Co₃O₄ nanorods of cubic Co₃O₄ in the space group Fd-3m. Silica 922 was used for the remainder of the thesis to investigate the effect the quantity of molecular precursor has on the nature of active sites and Co₃O₄ morphology in Chapter 4. This support was also used to investigate the effect the amount of Co(NO₃)₂•6H₂O has on Co₃O₄ morphology in Chapter 5. This support was lastly used to investigate the steric constraints of the ligand groups, Ti[OSi(O[superscript(t)]Bu)₃]₄ (TiSi4), ⁱPrOTi[OSi(O[superscript(t)]Bu)₃]₃ (TiSi3), (OtBu)₃TiOSi(O[superscript(t)]Bu)₃ (TiSi) and the least sterically constrained Ti(OⁱPr)₄ has on the loading of precursor and Co₃O₄ morphology in Chapter 6.

Abstract:
Metal-air batteries with the aid of high theoretical energy density and affability are trusted as propitious energy storage systems in today’s energy research. However, enforcement of the technology is still hindered by the sluggish kinetics of their electrode reactions, that is, oxygen evolution and oxygen reduction reaction (OER/ORR). Developing a catalyst with inherently greater bifunctional activity and durability is the finest solution to confront the aforementioned challenges. Transition metal oxides (TMOs) are the most appropriate choice of materials for that purpose since they are highly active, inexpensive, abundant and non-hazardous. Among the various transition metal oxides, MnO2 and Co3O4 are gaining much attention due to their superior bifunctional performance and alkaline stability owing to their structural features and physicochemical properties. With the inspiration from promoted catalytic activity of MnO2 and Co3O4, this chapter is fully devoted to these two catalysts. The activity structural relationship, recent developments and future directions of these materials for bifunctional catalysis have been discussed in more detail. Besides, the significant parameters judging the bifunctional activity, that is, phase, crystal facets, morphology, defects, strains and mixed metals oxide formations, have been illustrated with suitable evidence. In addition, the fundamentals of water oxidation and reduction reactions are explained with the mechanisms. Moreover, the physiochemical properties of MnO2 and Co3O4 materials and their influence on the catalytic activity are related for a better understanding of bifunctional catalysis. This collective perception will be highly useful for the comprehension and designing of advanced metal oxide catalysts to further improve bifunctional catalysis.
