Abstract

CeO2 nanoparticles with diameter of about 5 nm were prepared by batch supercritical hydrothermal synthesis method at 390 °C without additional treatment. It was found that the characteristics of products depended on the pH value, reactant concentration (C0), and reaction temperature. The reaction time and coexisting cations (Li+, Na+ and K+) had little effect on the size and morphology of CeO2 particles. Uniform CeO2 nanoparticles were synthesized at 390 °C, pH = 9 and C0 = 0.06 M. The mechanism for batch supercritical hydrothermal synthesis of CeO2 nanoparticles is discussed.
