Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of rare earth material preparation technology, specifically relating to a method for preparing high specific surface area nano-cerium phosphate material. Background Technology

[0002] Rare earth elements, due to their 4f electron characteristic, possess many unique physicochemical properties, as do their compounds. Cerium phosphate, a rare earth compound, exhibits electrical conductivity, fluorescence, and catalytic activity, making it suitable for use as a mesoporous material, conductive material, luminescent material, catalytic material, humidity sensor, and thermal insulation material. When fabricated at the nanoscale, it can be used as an adsorbent material, mounted on electrodes, to redox small molecule compounds. This allows for the detection of minute amounts of these compounds via electrochemical signals, offering high sensitivity and stable testing characteristics.

[0003] Smaller rare-earth cerium phosphate particle sizes result in larger specific surface areas and stronger redox capabilities, which are more advantageous for fabricating highly sensitive detection materials. CN 101704543 A discloses a method for preparing cerium phosphate nanowires, including: preparing Ce... 3+ Salt solution in PO4 3- A mixture of salt solutions is prepared, the pH of which is adjusted to 0.8–1.5. The mixture is stirred for 0.3–1.5 h, and then aged in a water bath at 90–95 °C for at least 2 h under normal pressure to obtain hexagonal cerium phosphate nanowires. The optimal nanoscale size is an average diameter of 26 nm and an average length of 460 nm. CN 101935026 A discloses a method for hydrothermal synthesis of cerium phosphate nanospheres, including: controlling Ce... 3+ A cerium salt aqueous solution with a molar ratio of 1:1 to 10 was mixed with a 0.1–0.8 mol / L polyphosphoric acid aqueous solution, and 0.1–5% (mass fraction) of dispersant was added. Under heating and vigorous stirring, the mixture was allowed to become clear. The solution was then placed in a reactor for a hydrothermal reaction. After the reaction, the product was cooled to room temperature, washed, dried, and subjected to calcination heat treatment to obtain cerium phosphate micro-nanospheres with a diameter of several hundred nanometers. The literature "Synthesis, Characterization, and Exploration of Propane Oxidative Dehydrogenation of Mesoporous Cerium Phosphate Catalysts" reports the synthesis of a catalyst with a specific surface area of ​​152.5 μm using surfactant F172 as a template via a hydrothermal method. 2 / g of nano-cerium phosphate.

A network structure is formed through hydrogen bonding between the molecular weight chains of the modified corn starch, which can control the uniformity of cerium phosphate particle size. Different specific surface area values ​​of cerium phosphate can be controlled by adjusting the concentration of the modified corn starch. The modified corn starch can be removed through subsequent high-temperature sintering and washing, ultimately obtaining high-purity cerium phosphate nanoparticles.
