ABSTRACT:
Ceramic materials comprising steatite or forsterite which are highly dense in nature may be prepared by admixing a hydrolyzed alcoholic solution of a silicon alkoxide with a solution prepared by adding an organomagnesium compound to an alcohol at gelation conditions. Following the formation of the gel, it is then dried at an elevated temperature of from about 300.degree. to about 500.degree. C. to remove volatile compounds as well as to decompose any remaining organic compounds and thereafter the powder is pressed into a desired shape. The formed shape is then sintered at a temperature in the range of from about 850.degree. to about 950.degree. C. to form a densified ceramic.
