The proposal is for a process for producing powder from stabilised zirconium oxide which is suitable for pressing mouldings and subsequent sintering to provide high-density ceramic materials. To this end, an aqueous solution of a zirconium salt containing an additive is converted into droplets. The droplets formed are solidified, by the action of ammonia, into gel particles which are then washed, dewatered, dried and calcined. |
