A Generalized Synthesis of Metal Oxide Hollow Spheres Using a Hydrothermal Approach
Abstract
Hollow spheres of crystalline metal oxides were synthesized in a simple one-pot synthesis via a hydrothermal approach. Various metal salts were dissolved together with carbohydrates in water, and the mixtures were heated to 180 °C in an autoclave. During the hydrothermal treatment, carbon spheres are formed with metal ions incorporated into their hydrophilic shell. The removal of carbon via calcination yields hollow metal oxide spheres. Using this process, we can produce a wide range of metal oxide hollow spheres that are not accessible via sol−gel chemistry. In this paper, we report the synthesis of Fe 2 O 3, NiO, Co 3 O 4, CeO 2, MgO, and CuO hollow spheres that are composed of nanoparticles. The surface area and thickness of the shell can be varied or controlled by the carbohydrate:metal salt concentration.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
