Abstract

Nanostructured ceria supported on SiO2 catalysts were synthesized using four different preparation procedures: (1) cerium nitrate adsorption, (2) ammonia precipitation, (3) citric acid-ammonia complexing method (4) citric acid sol-gel method. Thermogravimetry-differential scanning calorimetry (TG-DSC) was used to analyze the weight loss and crystallization behavior of the precursors made by four synthesis procedures during heat treatment. The synthesis effects on the size, dispersion, crystallinity and photocatalytic properties of ceria supported on SiO2 were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), high-resolution transmission electron microscope (HRTEM), ultraviolet-visible absorption spectra (UV-Vis), photoluminescence spectra (PL) and photocatalytic degradation of methylene blue. The results show that ceria supported SiO2 catalyst synthesized by sol-gel method has the best dispersity and photocatalytic performance, lowest crystallinity, smallest grain size and band gap.
