Synthesis and full characterization of the phase-pure pyrochlore Ce2Zr2O7 and the κ-Ce2Zr2O8 phases
It is known that the -Ce2Zr2O8 phase is an active oxidation catalyst with an extraordinarily high oxygen storage capacity. The -Ce2Zr2O8 phase is synthesized starting from t-Ce0.5Zr0.5O2 solid solution which is reduced by hydrogen at high temperatures to form the pyrochlore Ce2Zr2O7 phase (pyr-Ce2Zr2O7) with high degree of ordering of the cationic sublattice. The final step in the synthesis of the -Ce2Zr2O8 phase includes a mild re-oxidation of pyr-Ce2Zr2O7 at around 600 °C under atmospheric conditions. Yet, the optimum synthesis of the -Ce2Zr2O8 phase is still not settled since most of the previous studies used reduction temperatures of 1300 °C and below. We show in contribution that 1300 °C is not sufficient to warrant the preparation of phase-pure pyr-Ce2Zr2O7 and -Ce2Zr2O8, but rather that temperatures as high as 1500 °C are required to assure phase purity. This conclusion is drawn from extended X-ray diffraction and X-ray absorption spectroscopy analysis together with Raman spectroscopy, providing in-depth details of the structure on the level of both, the evolution of the special periodic structure and the coordination of the metal atoms.
