The samples were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction（PXRD）, scanning/transmission electron microscopy（SEM/TEM）, and nitrogen adsorption-desorption at 77 K. The results show that the catalytic activity of Co3O4 nanoflowers for the combustion of ventilation air methane is higher than that of commercial Co3O4. The superior catalytic performance of this material can be related to its dominantly exposed {112} crystal planes and higher content of surface Co3＋.展开更多
