Hierarchical Structure and Catalytic Activity of Flower-Like CeO(2) Spheres Prepared Via a Hydrothermal Method

Hierarchical CeO(2) particles were synthesized by a hydrothermal method based on the reaction between CeCl(3)·7H(2)O and PVP at 270 °C. The flower-like CeO(2) with an average diameter of about 1 μm is composed of compact nanosheets with thicknesses of about 15 nm and have a surface area of 36.8 m(2)...

Sumario:Hierarchical CeO(2) particles were synthesized by a hydrothermal method based on the reaction between CeCl(3)·7H(2)O and PVP at 270 °C. The flower-like CeO(2) with an average diameter of about 1 μm is composed of compact nanosheets with thicknesses of about 15 nm and have a surface area of 36.8 m(2)/g, a large pore volume of 0.109 cm(3)/g, and a narrow pore size distribution (14.9 nm in diameter). The possible formation mechanism of the hierarchical CeO(2) nanoparticles has been illustrated. The 3D hierarchical structured CeO(2) exhibited a higher catalytic activity toward CO oxidation compared with commercial CeO(2).
