Abstract
A procedure is developed for the synthesis of copper(II) oxide hydrosols. It is shown that the main parameters that govern the reproducibility of the synthesis results and the aggregation stability of synthesized hydrosols are the temperature of copper(II) nitrate hydrolysis and the concentration of a peptizing agent. Dispersed phase particles are shown to have a cylindrical shape with a prevailing length-to-diameter ratio of approximately 2.7.
