We synthesized uranium oxide nanoparticles using a plasma flow reactor (PFR) and studied the effects of three different experimental parameters on the resulting morphologies and speciation of the particles: (1) collection duration, (2) collection substrate temperature, and (3) radial collection position due to radial temperature gradients in the PFR. We also induced three distinct temperature histories along the axis of the plasma flow reactor by varying the gas flow rates downstream of the plasma torch. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) analyses of collected particles showed two phases of uranium oxides (fcc-UO2 and α-UO3). The chemical compositions of the resulting uranium oxide particles were not altered by the three parameters investigated in this work but varied based on the temperature history induced. Preheating of the collection substrate led to deposition of fewer particles, which is attributed to a reduction in thermophoretic force caused by the reduced temperature gradient for preheated substrates. The relative amounts of UO2 to UO3 and particle size varied depending on the cooling history employed during synthesis.
