ABSTRACT:
A ceramic article made from a mixture comprising (on a dry weight basis) magnesium oxide (MgO) in an amount up to 2% by weight, a defined rare earth oxide in amount up to 10% by weight, balance beryllium oxide, and trace elements, the defined rare earth oxide being zirconium oxide (ZrO.sub.2), hafnium oxide (HfO.sub.2), cerium oxide (Ce.sub.2 O.sub.3), yttrium oxide (Y.sub.2 O.sub.3), ytterbium oxide (Yb.sub.2 O.sub.3) or thorium oxide (ThO.sub.2). Such ceramic articles have much improved properties in particular higher densities than attainable hitherto and better crossbreak strength and surface smoothness as fired. The ceramic compositions can also be admixed with supplementary ceramic materials such as silicon carbide to produce microwave absorbing materials.
