METHOD FOR RECONSTRUCTING A 3D IMAGE WITH ENHANCED CONTRAST AND RESOLUTION

摘要

The invention relates to a composition based on zirconium oxide and comprising cerium oxide which has a specific surface of at least 30 m2/g after calcination for 6 hours at 900° C. and which is provided in the form of a pure solid solution of cerium oxide in zirconium oxide. According to another embodiment, this composition can additionally comprise a doping element and can exhibit a specific surface of at least 25 m2g after calcination for 6 hours at 1000° C. A process for the preparation of these compositions comprises the following stages:a mixture is prepared, in liquid medium, containing a zirconium compound and a cerium(IV) compound;the said mixture is heated at a temperature greater than 100° C.;the reaction mixture obtained on conclusion of the heating is brought to a basic pH;the precipitate thus obtained is recovered;the said precipitate is calcined;the doping element being, if appropriate, added either to the starting mixture in liquid medium or to the reaction mixture obtained on conclusion of the heating.
