Abstract

We synthesized various kinds of nanosize oxide particles with the particle size of 2-100 nm by the combination of precipitation method and hydrothermal treatment at temperature lower than 200°C. The cerium oxide particles obtained only by the hydrothermal treatment were single crystal with platelet shape even at a particle size of about 2 nm, and the platelet plane was identified to be (111) from the observation of lattice images. By the heating at 100-600°C in air, the particle size was increased from about 2 nm to 15 nm maintaining the platelet shape with elevating the temperature. In the zirconium oxide particles, it was confirmed that both monoclinic and tetragonal phases were obtained by the control of synthesis conditions in the precipitation hydrothermal treatment at a temperature lower than 200°C without heating at higher temperature. The typical particle sizes of monoclinic and tetragonal phases were about 7 nm and 100 nm. The crystal constants of these cerium and zirconium oxide particles were nearly in agreement with those of balk oxides.
