ABSTRACT:
Useful ceramic bodies can be made by mixing zirconia powder with seeded alumina gel, drying, and firing at a high enough temperature to convert the alumina in the gel to microcrystalline alpha alumina. Abrasive grits made in this way, with a zirconia content between 15 and 30 weight percent and at least half the zirconia in the tetragonal crystal form are particularly valuable for use in grinding wheels for snagging steels.
