Abstract

There is disclosed a process for producing metal oxide nanoparticles. The process includes the steps of: a) providing at least two precursor metal salt materials, b) passing the at least two precursor metal salt materials through a plasma torch forming a vaporized material, and then c) condensing the vaporized material forming a metal oxide nanoparticle.
