Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method for preparing cerium carbonate which enables preparation of hexagonal cerium carbonate by a simplified process, a cerium carbonate powder prepared thereby, and a method for preparing a cerium oxide powder using the same. The method for preparing cerium carbonate comprises the step of contact-reacting orthorhombic cerium carbonate with a primary alcohol aqueous solution comprising water and primary alcohol at a weight ratio of 1:0.1 or more at a temperature of 160° C. or more to form hexagonal cerium carbonate.
Abstract:
In a method for preparing cerium carbonate powder by mixing a cerium precursor solution with a carbonate precursor solution and carrying out a precipitation reaction, wherein cerium carbonate is controlled to have an orthorhombic crystal structure, a hexagonal crystal structure or an orthorhombic/hexagonal mixed crystal structure, by using at least one type of organic solvent comprising at least two hydroxyl groups (OH) in molecular formula as a solvent for either or both the cerium precursor solution and the carbonate precursor solution, and varying a number of carbons or hydroxyl groups (OH) included in the molecular formula of the organic solvent. The method can easily and inexpensively obtain cerium carbonate powder with a desired crystal structure without the danger by high-temperature high-pressure and the need for an expensive system in hydrothermal synthesis.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To reduce scratch developed on a surface to be polished in polishing with a cerium-based abrasive material containing cerium oxide particles, by reducing the amount of impurities contained in cerium salt particles to heighten the purity, in a method for producing a cerium salt which is a raw material for cerium oxide particles. SOLUTION: The method for producing the cerium salt includes: obtaining one or more cerium-containing intermediates from a cerium compound; and adding a precipitant to obtain a cerium salt precipitate, wherein at least one step of separating and removing insoluble components from the cerium-containing intermediates in the solution state is included.
