Shape-Controlled CeO₂ Nanomaterials Prepared by Hydrothermal Process

Abstract:

A simple hydrothermal method was developed to prepare shaped-controlled CeO₂ nanomaterials, in which, Ce (NO₃)₃· 6H₂O was used as Ce source and H₂O₂ was used as oxidant and morphologies controlling agent. Different morphologies of CeO₂ including nanoparticles, nanooctahedrons, nanorods and nanocubes could be obtained by simply adjusting the concentration of H₂O₂ in reaction system. These nanoCeO₂ could be dispersed in water and ethanol very well after reaction without using any surfactant. A possible growth mechanism was put forward to explain the morphologies evolution process based on TEM, SEM observations. There are not any other impurities were introduced into reaction, and the production ration is high enough, which supply a potential large-scale preparation method for CeO₂ nanomaterials.
