Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="normal"> <title> <x content-type="archive" xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p>A new trimetallic compound with formula (NH₄)Ni_2.4Co_0.6O(OH)(MoO₄)₂1.5H₂O was obtained by hydrothermal synthesis. The solid was characterized by X-ray diffraction, thermal analysis (thermogravimetric analysis and differential thermal analysis), Fourier-transformed infrared spectroscopy, Laser Raman spectroscopy, and chemical analysis by atomic absorption, confirming the formation of the layered phase <italic>ϕ</italic>_{<italic>y</italic>}. Crystallographic studies showed that the compound obtained is trigonal with hexagonal unit-cell parameters, <italic>a</italic> = 6.0468 ± 0.0016 Å and <italic>c</italic> = 21.8433 ± 0.0001 Å, and space group <italic>R</italic>-3<italic>m</italic>.</p> </abstract>
