A novel method for preparing Co3O4 nanofibers by using electrospun PVA/cobalt acetate composite fibers as precursor

Solid-state thermal decomposition of the [Co(NH3)5CO3]NO3·0.5H2O complex: A simple, rapid and low-temperature synthetic route to Co3O4 nanoparticles

“…2(d and e), FT-IR spectra of the samples that were decomposed in the 200-250 • C range show only the strong bands associated with Co 3 O 4 without obvious changes. It is noted that a tiny band at approximately 2360 cm −1 in the spectrum of some samples is associated with the presence of atmospheric CO 2 [61].…”

Development of photocatalytic TiO2 nanofibers by electrospinning and its application to degradation of dye pollutants

“…Recently, the electrospinning method has also been studied to fabricate one-dimensional inorganic semiconductors such as TiO 2 and ZnO. This is due to their potential applications in environmental remediation and protection, photocatalysis, dyesensitized solar cells, gas sensors, and batteries [27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35]. In this sense, we have developed photocatalytic TiO 2 nanofibers by electrospinning method for application to the degradation of dye pollutants.…”

Preparation and morphology of magnesium titanate nanofibres via electrospinning

“…Obtaining phase pure MgTiO 3 by solid state reactions is difficult because of the formation of other metastable titanate phases which persist to a certain extent in the final phase [5]. Recently, electrospinning technique has been used to prepare alumina borate [15], titania silica [16], silica [17], cobalt oxide [18], nickel oxide [19], copper oxide [20], niobium oxide [21], vanadium pentoxide [22] and zinc oxide [23] nanofibres or superfine fibres. This technique has been found to be unique and cost effective approach for fabricating large surface area membranes for a variety of applications [21,[24][25][26].…”
