Objectives. To develop a new green method for the synthesis of nanosized materials of cobalt(II,III) oxide, with improved surface activity, using environmentally friendly precursors and solvents.

Methods

Methods. A green method was proposed, in order to isolate Co3O4 nanoparticles with high surface activity. Instead of the usual organic solvents, three different natural sugars, including glycogen, sucrose, and glucose were used for the first time as templates. Water as a green solvent was used in all the steps. The polymorphic composition of the synthesized samples was determined by means of X-ray phase analysis. The morphology of the obtained crystallites was studied from micrographs of the oxide phases. Image Pro Plus 6 software was used to measure the size of nanoparticles. The surface activity of the isolated samples was studied using the Brunauer–Emmett–Teller method and the Langmuir method. The Barret–Joyner–Halenda method was used to determine the diameter, volume, and distribution of pores.

Results

Results. The crystallite sizes of the samples are 23 nm, 36 nm, and 30 nm for glucose, glycogen, and sucrose templates, respectively. Adsorption–desorption isotherms for samples obtained from complexes of glucose and sucrose correspond to type IV, indicating a strong interaction between the adsorbent and the adsorbed sample. The isotherm for the sample isolated from the complex with glycogen is of a different type and most likely indicates that this sample is almost completely mesoporous. The pore radii are found in the interval 1.2–1.6 nm.

Conclusions

Conclusions. A new green method for the synthesis of nanosized particles of Co(II,III) oxide using natural saccharides and deionized water was developed. The composition, morphology, structure, and surface activity of the samples obtained were studied. It was shown that due to the polymeric structure of their metal complexes and the ability to bind active carbon on the surface of nanoparticles, natural saccharides can be used as matrices in the synthesis of nanosized metal oxides with high surface activity.

Цели

Цели. Разработать новый «зеленый» метод синтеза наноразмерных материалов оксида кобальта(II,III) с улучшенной поверхностной активностью, используя неопасные для окружающей среды прекурсоры и растворители.

Методы

Методы. Предложен новый метод выделения наноразмерных частиц Co3O4 с высоко-развитой поверхностью. В качестве матриц впервые применены природные сахариды ― гликоген, сахароза и глюкоза. В роли экологически чистого растворителя на всех стадиях процесса используется вода. Полиморфный состав синтезированных образцов определяли с помощью рентгенофазового анализа. Морфологию полученных кристаллитов изучали по микрофотографиям оксидных фаз. Для измерения размера наночастиц использовалось программное обеспечение Image Pro Plus 6. Поверхностную активность выделенных образцов изучали методом Брунауэра–Эммета–Теллера и методом Ленгмюра. Для определения диаметра, объема и распределения пор применялся метод Баррета–Джойнера–Халенды.

Результаты

Результаты. Размеры кристаллитов синтезированных образцов составляют 23, 36 и 30 нм для матриц глюкозы, гликогена и сахарозы соответственно. Изотермы адсорбции– десорбции для образцов, полученных на основе комплексов глюкозы и сахарозы, соответствуют IV типу, что свидетельствует о сильном взаимодействии между адсорбентом и адсорбированным образцом. Изотерма для образца, выделенного на основе комплекса с гликогеном, относится к другому типу и, скорее всего, указывает на то, что этот образец почти полностью мезопористый. Радиус пор составляет 1.2–1.6 нм.

Выводы

Выводы. Разработан новый «зеленый» метод синтеза наноразмерных частиц оксида кобальта(II,III) с использованием природных сахаридов и деионизированной воды. Исследованы состав, морфология, строение и поверхностная активность полученных образцов. Показано, что природные сахариды благодаря полимерной структуре их металлокомплексов и способности связывать активный углерод на поверхности нано-частиц, могут быть использованы в качестве матриц при синтезе наноразмерных оксидов металлов с большой поверхностной активностью.
