XRD spectra show that the synthesized CeO 2 has cubic crystalline structure of space group O 5 H-F M3M, when calcination temperature is in the range of 250~800 ℃. TEM images reveal that CeO 2 particles are spherical in shape. The average size of the particles increases with the increase of calcination temperature. Thermogravimetric analysis indicates that the weight loss of precursor mainly depends on the calcination temperature, and little depends on the calcination time.
