The effects of the precursor reaction temperature, the concentration of Co2＋, and the calcination temperature on the specific surface area, morphology, and the electrochemical behavior of the ob- tained Co304 particles were investigated. The precursor basic cobaltous carbonate and cobaltosic oxide products were characterized and ana- lyzed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetric differential thermal analysis, X-ray diffraction, field-emission scanning electron microscopy, specific surface area analysis, and electrochemical analysis. The results indicate that the specific surface area of the Co3O4particles with a diameter of 30 rim, which were obtained under the optimum conditions of a precursor reaction temperature of 30℃, 0.25 mol/L Co2＋, and a calcination temperature of 350℃, was 48.89 m2/g. Electrodes fabricated using Co3O4 nanoparticles exhibited good electrochemical properties, with a specific capacitance of 216.3 F/g at a scan rate of 100 mV/s.展开更多

Different parameters affecting the extraction process such as equilibrium time, sulfate concentration, Aliquat 336 concentration, equilibrium p H and the extraction temperature were investigated. Extraction of V（V） and Cr（III） by Aliquat 336 involved anion exchange mechanism, and the extracted species are [（VO2SO4）R4N]org at low equilibrium p H for V（V） and [R4N-Cr（OH）4]org at high equilibrium p H for Cr（III）. Calculated thermodynamic parameters show that the extraction process is endothermic reaction for V（V） and exothermic for Cr（III）. Also, calculated values of ？Gex and ？Sex indicate that the extraction reactions of V（V） and Cr（III） proceed as non-spontaneous reaction is more random. V（V） and Cr（III） were stripped, precipitated, separated and calcined at 500 °C for 2.0 h to produce the corresponding oxide in pure form after rinsing and drying.展开更多
