Synthesis and Characterization of Nano‐Ziconium Dioxide in Recombination Surfactant Association System

This article investigates the influence factors of reagent ratio, pH, stirring intensity, sintering temperature along with ultrasonic wave to particle size, distribution of nanoziconium dioxide in recombination surfactant system. The optimized reagent ratio (wt) of cyclohexan, OP‐10, n‐Amyl alcohol, zircon salt solution are 55%, 17.5%, 17.5%, 10%, respectively. At pH=8.7, the size of nanozirconium oxide has the priority of smaller (<10 nm), narrower particle size distribution and better performance in W/O form.
