Abstract
A method of treating a powder (P) made from cerium oxide using an ion beam (F) in which: —the powder is stirred once or a plurality of times; —the ions of the ion beam are selected from the ions of the elements of the list consisting of helium (He), boron (B), carbon (C), nitrogen (N), oxygen (O), neon (Ne), argon (Ar), krypton (Kr), xenon (Xe)—the acceleration voltage of the ions of the beam is between 10 kV and 1000 kV; —the treatment temperature of the powder (P) is less than or equal to Tf/3; —the ion dose per mass unit of powder to be treated is chosen from a range of between 1016 ions/g and 1022 ions/cm2 so as to lower the reduction temperature of the powder made from cerium oxide (P).
