This work reports on the investigation of nanosized CeO2-ZnO systems
This work reports on investigating nanosized CeO2-ZnO systems prepared by Pechini's method. The structural and morphological characterization of CeO2-ZnO systems as well as the characterization of CeO2 and ZnO separately, showed that the employed method resulted in powders with spheroidal particles whose sizes are in the range of 30 - 200 nm, which is appropriate to provide homogeneous suspensions. The ZnO present in the prepared mixed oxides seems to increase particle size distribution and infl
