Nano technology allows many applications thanks to the desired shape and dimensions of nano particles.
In addition, the limited number of synthesis and characterization of nanoparticles of rare earth elements
attracts more attention to study these elements. In this study, One of these elements is Lanthanum.
Lanthanum Oxide (La2O3) nanostate of lanthanum is widely used not only in water treatment, but also
in solid oxide fuel cells, catalytic exhaust gas converters, high dielectric materials. s. This nanoparticle
prepared by sonication method was analyzed with SEM and Zetasizer devices. In the SEM analyzes, it
was observed that the particles were fragmented and separated from each other after the La2O3 treatment
in bulk form. In the subsequent Zetasizer device, it was observed that La2O3 in bulk was approximately
4600 nm in the average size analysis, and the sample examined after the process decreased by
approximately 700 nm. This shows that SEM and Zetasizer analyzes confirm each other.
