In this study, a series of cobalt-doped MnCO₃ hierarchical microstructures with different morphologies were synthesized by tuning a single variable (the dopant content) via a one-step, mild solvothermal synthesis in a N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) solution system. Structure evolution of the polymorphic MnCO₃ took place with the morphology obviously transforming from an initial flower-microstructure to fan-like, then to hedgehog-like hemispheres and finally to flake-spheres as the Co²⁺ theoretical content (Co/(Co + Mn)) increased from 0 to 20% in the solvothermal process. Cobalt ion modulated reaction-limited aggregation (RLA) is proposed in the growth mechanism. The mechanism of Co²⁺-induced acceleration and full growth is further investigated. The Co²⁺ doped manganese carbonate displays wonderful catalytic performance towards CO oxidation.
