Dispersion characterization of nanoparticles was carried out using UV/Vis spectroscopy. ZnO and CeO2 nanoparticles of sizes ranging 10 - 250 nm were investigated for slurries having various concentrations. The particles were synthesized by mechanochemical processing, which allows the formation of agglomeration-free nanoparticles. It was found that the UV/Vis spectra were highly sensitive to mean particle sizes and agglomeration states. The results showed that UV/Vis spectroscopy is a highly promising technique for studying nanoparticle dispersions having a wide range of concentrations in various media.
