Perovskite LaCr 1-x Co x O 3 (0 B x B 0.5) oxides synthesized by co precipitation method were investigated. X-ray diffraction, thermo gravimetric and differential thermal analysis, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and electrochemical measurements, were used to characterize the structure, morphology, electrochemical properties of the samples. The studied compounds have orthorhombic and rhombohedral systems in the ranges (0 B x B 0.2) and (0.3 B x B 0.5) respectively. Thermal analysis results indicate that the pure phase was obtained at temperature above 800°C. The structure and morphology of the samples characterized by SEM measurements indicate that particles have nearly spherical shapes and are agglomerated. The electrochemical measurements indicate that the catalytic activity is strongly influenced by cobalt doping. The highest electrode performance is achieved with large cobalt content.
