A series of CeO2 nanoparticles was synthesized by precipitation in reverse microemulsions in the presence of mixed aqueous–alcoholic solutions at variable and constant medium pH. It is shown that these methods promote the formation of non-agglomerated CeO2 particles with a size less than 15 nm. TEM and XPS methods showed that the ratio of Ce3+ /Ce4+ ions increases on the surface when the size of CeO2 nanoparticles is decreased. The synthesized CeO2 nanoparticles show high stability in aqueous suspensions without using additional stabilizers (𝜁 > +35 mV), which is important for medical and biological application.
