Abstract
Shuttle‐shaped ceria was obtained in a high yield via a surfactant octadecylamine and urea assisted solvothermal process. The crystalline structure and morphology were characterized with powder X‐ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM), and transmission electron microscope (TEM). Preliminary catalytic measurement shows that the shuttle‐shaped CeO~2~ exhibits an enhanced activity for CO oxidation, which may be attributed to its higher porosity and more oxygen vacancies.(© Wiley‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

## Abstract Ceria–zirconia mixed oxide was successfully synthesized via the sol–gel process at ambient temperature, followed by calcination at 500, 700 and 900 °C. The synthesis parameters, such as alkoxide concentration, aging time and heating temperature, were studied to obtain the most uniform a
