Abstract

Abstract In this paper, a facile synthesis of 100 nm commercial colloid silica coated with nano-ceria core–shell composite particles by the precipitation method using ammonium cerium nitrate and urea as a precipitator with polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) as an assistant was briefly introduced. The results showed that the colloid silica was surrounded by nano-ceria uniformly forming the core–shell composite particles. The synthesis process was further discussed and optimized. It was found that the type and quantity of surfactant played a key role in the process. PVP connected the surface of colloid silica and that of the ceria precursor.
