The Global Market for Cerium Oxide Nanoparticles

Published September 2016 | 38 pages

DESCRIPTION

Cerium oxide (ceria) nanoparticles (Nanoceria/CeO2-NPs) are widely researched for their current and potential use in catalytic, energy, environment protection and biomedical applications. Desirable properties of CeO2-NPs include:

Unique redox properties as oxygen vectors. They can destroy or generate Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) depending on the chemical conditions and their structure.
Ability to act as a catalyst for both oxidation and reduction reactions
High ionic conductivity
UV-filtering.
