Herein, we report a facile hydrothermal method for the preparation of cobalt oxide nanocubes incorporating reduced graphene oxide (rGO–Co3O4 nanocubes) for electrocatalytic oxidation of methanol. The synthesized rGO–Co3O4 nanocubes were characterized using transmission electron microscopy (TEM), fie...
