Abstract

Method of preparing cerium carbonate powder by mixing a cerium precursor solution with a carbonate precursor solution and subjecting the mixture solution to a precipitation reaction, wherein the concentration of cerium in the cerium precursor solution ranges from 1M to 10M, the molar concentration ratio of the cerium precursor to the carbonate precursor ranges from 1:1 to 1:7, and the cerium precursor solution contains at least one additive selected from the group consisting of carbonate compounds, acrylic compounds, and sulfate ion-containing compounds. The cerium carbonate powder has an orthorhombic crystal structure, a particle size of 0.05 to 1 μm, and an aspect ratio of 1 to 5. Moreover, disclosed are cerium oxide powder prepared from said cerium carbonate powder as a precursor, a preparation method thereof, and a CMP slurry containing said cerium oxide powder as an abrasive.
