Abstract
One of the methods for the reduction of harmful emissions from diesel engines such as hydrocarbon, soot and NOx is the use of fuel born catalyst Cerium oxide. The oxygen storage capacity of Cerium oxide can be improved by coating it with metal such as Zirconium. Zr – Ce-O nanoparticles were synthesized by Co-precipitation method in the present work. Dynamic Light scattering, XRD pattern and UV-Visible spectroscopy were used for characterization of the prepared samples. Thermo gravimetric studies were conducted to investigate the thermal decomposition of Zr-Ce-O nanoparticles. The oxygen storage capacity of Zr-Ce-O nanoparticles was analyzed using TPR analysis.
