title: Morphology-directed synthesis of Co3O4 nanotubes based on modified Kirkendall effect and its application in CH4 combustion.
abstract: We reported the morphology-directed synthesis of Co(3)O(4) nanotubes via interfacial reaction of NaOH with pre-fabricated CoC(2)O(4)·2H(2)O nanorods based on modified Kirkendall effect. The as-obtained Co(3)O(4) nanotubes showed excellent activity and durability in catalytic combustion of CH(4).
