In this work we are reporting the synthesis and characterization of superparamagnetic cobalt nanocomposites obtained from the direct reduction of cobalt(II) salts on matrices of graphene (G) and carbon nanodisks/nanocones (Ndc) in the presence of L-serine under solvothermal conditions. The synthesized nanocomposites were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction techniques identifying in all cases the peaks associated to the matrix (G or Ndc) and three peaks at 2θ values of 44,2; 51,5; 75,8, which correspond to the Miller indices ( 111), ( 200), ( 220), characteristic of a face-centered cubic Co 0 phase. The SEM images of cobalt nanocomposites show that that using of a matrix changes the size and distribution of the metallic agglomerates, being possible to observe a more homogenous dispersion of the cobalt agglomerates on the Ndc matrix surface. Cobalt nanocomposites have a superparamagnetic behavior presenting Hc values of 14 and 60 Oe for NPs-Co 0 /G and NPs-Co 0 /Ndc respectively. The superparamagnetic property of the cobalt nanoparticles and unique properties of the matrix would generate a magnetic material with interesting properties to be studied. More research is needed to give it a potential application.
