The invention is to provide a process for producing an aluminum titanate-based ceramic such as aluminum titanate or aluminum magnesium titanate having excellent thermal decomposition resistance and having a smaller coefficient of thermal expansion. The invention is a process for producing an aluminum titanate-based ceramic, comprising firing a starting material mixture containing a titanium source compound, an aluminum source compound and preferably a magnesium source compound, and a glass frit having a deformation point of 700° C. or more and/or a viscosity at 900° C. of 1.0×10 6 poises or more. |
