“…In particular, many articles have been devoted to the synthesis, microstructure, and properties of cobalt oxide nanoparticles due to their high potential as catalysts [1,2], gas sensors [3], and magnetic materials [4,5]. Cobalt oxides have been prepared by different procedures, e.g., the sol-gel process [6,7], hydrothermal synthesis [8], mechanochemical processing reactions [9], and combustion synthesis [10,11].…”
