Fine tuning of gadolinium doped ceria electrolyte nanoparticles via reverse microemulsion process

Effect of fuel-to-nitrate ratio on the powder characteristics of nanosized CeO2 synthesized by mixed fuel combustion method

“…The other weak band appearing in 2920-2960 cm −1 region may be assignable to C-H stretching of residual organic species resulted from the organic compounds used in the synthesis. A similar assignment has been made by Chandradass et al [17] in their studies on Gd doped ceria nanoparticles. The reduced intensity of this band indicates that the concentration of organic moieties present in the combustion derived ceria powders is minor.…”

Synthesis and Physicochemical Characterization of Ce1−xGdxO2−δ: A Case Study on the Impact of the Oxygen Storage Capacity on the HCl Oxidation Reaction

“…[8,9] Our synthetic approacht owards electrospun mesoporous nanofibersi sb ased on an anoparticle dispersion of the corresponding metal oxide. [7,8] Many different syntheses for nanoparticles of Gd 2 O 3 -CeO 2 solid solutions are reported in literature, using methods such as high-energy ball milling, [10,11] reverse microemulsions, [12] or hydrothermal synthesis. [13] Conversely, only af ew syntheses yield nanoparticles with suitable dispersibility in organic solutions,w hichi sn eeded for the electrospinning process.…”

Effect of aging time and calcination temperature on the cerium oxide nanoparticles synthesis via reverse co-precipitation method

“…Accordingly, preparation of ultrafine CeO 2 powders without agglomeration has been intensively investigated. CeO 2 nanopowders can be synthesized by different methods, such as, hydrothermal (Dos Santos et al, 2008), mechanochemical (Zec et al, 2009), combustion synthesis (Mukherjee et al, 2008), sol-gel (Tao et al, 2009), microemulsion (Chandradass et al, 2009), coprecipitation (Godinho et al, 2007) and spray-pyrolysis (Yao and Xie, 2007). Compared with these methods, coprecipitation method is one of the most promising techniques because of the inexpensive starting materials, a simple synthesis process with reproducible results and commonly available apparatus (Truffault et al, 2010;Hassanzadeh-tabrizi et al, 2010).…”
