Abstract
Surface area measurements were carried out by nitrogen adsorption at —196 °C on cobalt oxide and on lithium- and ferric-doped cobalt oxides. Thermal products were obtained by calcination in the temperature range 250–1000 °C. Structural and phase changes were studied by differential thermal analysis (DTA) and X-ray techniques. DTA of samples showed that heating of the pure and doped cobalt hydroxide in air in the temperature range 250–700 °C yields Co 3O 4. On increasing the heating temperature to 800 °C CoO is formed. The dehydration products obtained at temperature less than 500 °C were amorphous to X-rays. Doping with foreign ions causes textural changes in the parent solid.
