More Information
Summary:Disclosed herein are mixed oxide compositions comprising zirconium and cerium having a surprisingly small particle sizes. The compositions disclosed herein contain zirconium, cerium, optionally yttrium, and optionally one or more other rare earths other than cerium and yttrium. The compositions exhibit a particle size characterized by a D90 value of about 5 um to about 25 μm and a D99 value of about 5 μm to about 50 μm. Further disclosed are processes of producing these compositions using oxalic acid and an alcohol and heating in the process. The compositions can be used as a catalyst and/or part of an automobile exhaust system.
