The paper proposes a new method for the synthesis of powders containing transition metals using a plasma-solution system. The reactor was an H-shaped glass cell, the two parts of which were separated by a cellophane membrane. A discharge consisting of two discharges - with a liquid cathode and a liquid anode - a high voltage is applied to titanium electrodes located above the surface of the solution. Aqueous solutions of zinc, iron, cadmium, cobalt, nickel, and copper nitrates were used as the liquid phase. Under the action of the discharge on the liquid anode, in the region of contact of the discharge with the solution the formation of a colloidal suspension was observed. The kinetics of the process of synthesis of solid-phase particles in solution under the action of a discharge have been studied. The chemical composition and morphology of the formed solid phase have been established. The mechanisms of chemical reactions occurring in the solution under the action of plasma, and the mechanisms of formation of transition metal oxides in the process of calcining the synthesized powders have been proposed.
