Fabrication of Co3O4 nanorods by calcination of precursor powders prepared in a novel inverse microemulsion.
Co3O4 nanorods were prepared by improving traditional molten salt synthesis; the length and diameters of the Co3O4 nanorods were about 10 microns and 40-100 nm, respectively; the mechanism of formation of the Co3O4 nanorods is discussed.
