The phase compositions and particle morphology of nanostructured Co-Pt system, obtained by the reduction of aqueous solutions of precursors with hydrazine hydrate, have been studied (for the first time in the Pt-rich region) by X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (coupled with electron diffraction (ED)), thermogravimetry, small-angle X-ray scattering analysis (SAXS) and elemental analysis of the samples. As determined by XRD, with Co content less than approximately 60 at%, the only phase is determined: the face-centred cubic (fcc) phase of the solid solution of Co in Pt, with the upper limit of Co solubility in Pt equal to 18±1 at%. For Co content in the solid solution higher than its solubility limit during the synthesis, diffraction-undetectable phase (phases) is also formed in addition to the fcc solid solution phase. The presence of such phases was confirmed by the results of SAXS, and their metal nature, rather than oxide-hydroxide one, was confirmed by XRD, ED, and thermal analysis.
