Binary mixed metal oxides, having composition Ce0.75Zr0.25O2 were prepared by microwave-hydrothermal (MH) reaction (200 degreesC, 200 psi, 30 min) using ZrO(NO3)(2).xH(2)O, Ce(NO3)(3).6H(2)O as starting precursors and KOH as mineralizer. 0.025, 0.075 and 1.2 M solutions of ZrO(NO3)(2).xH(2)O, Ce(NO3)(3).6H(2)O and KOH, respectively, are used for MH synthesis. Solution (7.5 ml) of each of ZrO(NO3)(2).xH(2)O (0.025 M) and Ce(NO3)(3).6H(2)O (0.075 M) are mixed with 25 ml of KOH and treated in specially designed vessels using microwave accelerated reaction system to obtain ceria-zirconia solid solution. Various physico-chemical techniques such as XRD, Raman, SEM, EDAX. TEM, BET, etc. are used to characterize the resultant powders. The results showed that the as-prepared powder particles consisted of solid solution of ceria-zirconia having cubic fluorite structure with surface area equal to 125 m(2) g(-1). SEM/TEM photographs for the same showed varied distribution of agglomerates with primary particle size congruent to7 nm. The cubic phase is obtained at a temperature (pressure) and time as low as 180 degreesC (127 psi) and 5 min. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
