Abstract

Porous ceramometal Al2O3/CoAlO/CoAl was studied by set of physicochemical techniques such as XRD, SEM, internal field59Co and27Al MAS NMR, and porosity measurements. They revealed the cermet containing three parts. First, cobalt-free large porous alumina particles which surrounded by the second oxide part representing spinel CoxAl3-xO4(x=1,2,3) oxides. And third, oxygen-free metallic part consists of cobalt metal particles covered by Co-Al oxide protecting the metallic part from oxidation. Porosity measurements ascertained high porosity (60%) and good SSA (122 m2/g). Also the enhanced adsorption of microwaves due to metallic particles randomly distributed in oxides was found.
