A hydrothermal method was employed for the preparation of CuO-CeO2 nanocatalysts. Their performance in PROX reaction was studied. Choosing proper combination of hydrothermal synthesis parameters, such as temperature, concentration and aging time, different nanostructures can be obtained, with attractive catalytic properties.
