Co3O4, NiO and ZnO microparticles were decorated with Fe3O4 nanoparticles where novel Co3O4@Fe3O4, NiO@Fe3O4 and ZnO@Fe3O4 microcomposites were obtained with significant magnetic properties. Decorating microparticles with Fe3O4 nanoparticles helped us to obtain microcomposites with outstanding magnetic characteristics, since Fe3O4 nanoparticles were decorated on the upper shell of the microstructures where the magnetic characteristics of the composites were not suppressed, and good catalytic performance was obtained. SEM was used to assess the physical morphology of the microparticles which indicate that microparticles were in flower or ball-like shape. Magnetic properties were checked using VSM which revealed that magnetic composites are in ferromagnetic characteristics. Optic characteristics of the particles were checked by UV–Vis spectrometry to assess bandgap energies which indicate that doping microparticles with Fe3O4 slightly alters the bandgap energies of microparticles. The catalytic role of microparticles and microcomposites for the catalytic reduction of 4-nitrophenol to 4-aminophenol was studied.

In this work, structural, electrochemical and optical properties of the flower-like Co3O4, NiO and CuO nanostructures were investigated. Co3O4, NiO and CuO nanoflowers were prepared using hydrothermal method. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy was used in the confirmation of the chemical composition of the nanostructures. X-ray diffraction (XRD) was used in the analysis of crystal structures that peaks observed in the XRD analysis confirms good crystallinity of the nanoflowers. Scanning electron microscopy analysis was used to illustrate the flower-like structure of the nanostructures. Cyclic voltammetry (CV) was used in the assessment of the electrochemical properties. It was seen that flower-like Co3O4, NiO and CuO nanostructures have enhanced electrochemical properties. Using CV results, redox reaction processes of the Co3O4, NiO and CuO nanoflowers were determined. Diffusion constants were determined and NiO nanoflowers found to have the highest diffusion constant among those. Nyquist and Bode diagrams were evaluated. Energy band gaps of Co3O4, NiO, CuO nanoflowers were calculated which were found to be 2.10 eV, 2.25 eV and 3.71 eV, respectively.
