Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé de production de nanoparticules contenant au moins un oxyde métallique, comprenant les étapes consistant à : (A) mettre à disposition un mélange réactionnel contenant au moins un composé précurseur dudit oxyde métallique et au moins une source d'oxygène dans un solvant qui contient au moins un alcool monovalent, à une température T1 de 0 à 50 °C; (B) chauffer le mélange réactionnel obtenu à l'étape (A) à une température T2 de 50 à 135 °C au moyen d'un rayonnement de micro-ondes, ce qui permet d'obtenir les nanoparticules contenant au moins un oxyde métallique et (C) refroidir le mélange réactionnel de l'étape (B), contenant les nanoparticules, à une température T3 de 0 à 50 °C.
