The SEM images of Ce0.8La0.2O2 nanocatalyst infiltrated with 10wt.% Ni prepared using soft template method

The dataset includes SEM images of Ce0.8La0.2O2-s nanopowder (nanoparticles) prepared using soft template method and infiltrated to 10wt.% Ni in the catalyst. CTAB was used as a micelle-based templating agent. The powder was precipitated from aqueous nitrate solution using NaOH solution and 250xCMC (critcal micelle concentration) of CTAB. Precipitate was heated up to 90oC, centrifuged and washed several times. The powders were calcined at 400oC. Powder was single-phase. The Ni was introduced using nitrate solution (Ni(NO3)2*6H2O)) in water with the addition of beta-cyclodextrin.
