Influence of Oxidizing Atmosphere on Crystalline Phase Formation and Microstructural Properties of Mixed Cerium-Zinc Oxides Obtained by Polymeric Precursor Method
Abstract:This paper presents the synthesis, characterization and influence of oxidizing atmosphere in the calcinations and sintering processes on microstructural properties of mixed oxides of Cerium and Zinc, obtained by the polymeric precursor method, aiming at a subsequent catalytic application. The material was submitted to calcinations and sintering at 900 and 1050 °C. The samples were characterized by XRD analysis techniques, surface area by BET method and refined by the Rietveld method. The results of X-ray diffr… Show more
