Abstract
In this work, CeO2 nanosheet was facile synthesized via a parallel flow precipitation route, using cerium chloride trihydrate and sodium carbonate as the cerium source, without using any surfactants and templates. The results show that the CeO2 nanosheets have a median particle size (D50) of 118 nm, a range (R) of 0.69, a surface area of 3.01 m2/g, a pore diameter of 27.96 nm, a pore volume of 0.02 cm3/g, and a loss on ignition (L.O.I.) of < 1%. Furthermore, the activation energy of CeO2 nanocrystal growth during the calcination process is about 30.5 kJ/mol, indicating that the controlling link of the crystallite growth is the interfacial chemical reaction. Ostwald ripening (OR) mechanism has a synergistic effect with Oriented attachment (OA) mechanism during the process of nucleation and growth of Ce2(CO3)3 crystal grains.
