Abstract
Mixed oxides of cerium oxide and zirconium oxides having a high oxygen storage and high oxygen release rate are disclosed. The mixed oxides are made of polycrystalline particles of cerium oxide and zirconium oxide having a controlled domain structure on the subcrystalline level wherein adjacent domains within a single crystallite have a different ratio of zirconium and cerium. The mixed oxides are prepared by a co-precipitation technique using mixed salt solutions of cerium and zirconium having a solid content of at least 23%, based on an oxide basis.
