Synthesis of electrocrystallized cobalt ferrite nanopowders by tuning the cobalt salt concentration

Abstract: Cobalt ferrite nanopowders were synthesized by an electrocrystallization method. The synthesis was carried out in an electrochemical cell containing two iron electrodes, and an electrolyte solution of sodium sulfate, sodium butanoate, and cobalt sulphate heptahydrate. The concentration of the cobalt salt was optimized to produce cobalt ferrite nanoparticles. The samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction, XPS analysis, electron microscopy, magnetometry and Mössbauer spectroscopy. Based on XRD and XPS resu… Show more

“…There is also the existence of a peak at 786.6 eV, which again confirms the presence of Co 2+ . This is in accordance with the XRD data, which proves that there are no mixed phases of CoO or Fe 2 O 3 in the Nk samples 41 . Figure 5c shows Au binding energies with doublet peaks at 83.8 and 87.4eV thus denoting the Au state of Au4f7/2 and Au4f5/2, respectively.…”

“…5a situated at around 711.7 and 725 eV respectively, were broadened due to the presence of Fe 3+ ions in tetrahedral sites 39 40 . There is also a satellite peak of Fe 3+ at 719.6 eV, which confirms the presence of Fe 3+ 41 . The orbitals of Co ( Fig.…”

“…To date, there have been only a few reports on the electrosynthesis of oxide nanoparticles. [18][19][20][21] One of the great advantages of this synthetic route is that an inert atmosphere is not necessary to avoid oxidation of the Fe 3 O 4 particles to Fe 2 O 3 . 22 Iron oxide nanoparticles possess high surface energy due to their large surface-to-volume ratio.…”

“…The obtained pore size distribution calculated via the Barrett-Joyner-Halenda (BJH) method demonstrated the mesoporous nature of 18.28, 17.19, 37.33, 24.29 Figure 9d [37]. As depicted in Figure 9e, the XPS explains the origin of oxygen vacancies and the main peak at the high resolution O1s peak having binding energies of 530.3 eV, respectively [38]. The XPS analytical results shown above are consistent with XRD for CoFe2O4 and W-substituted CoFe2O4 nanoparticles, confirming the formation of pure CoFe2O4 and W-substituted CoFe2O4 structures free from any type of impurities and a mixed phase.…”
