Method of manufacturing a fine monodisperse oxide powder, a fine monodisperse oxide powder, a ceramic composition and their use of same

Abstract

Fine, monodisperse oxide powders can be manufactured by means of a method which does not require expensive production facilities, in which method a graphite intercalation compound is manufactured by reacting one or more chemical starting compounds of one or more elements of the groups Ib, IIa, IIb, IIIa, IIIb, IVa, IVb, Va, Vb, VIa, VIb, VIIb, VIII of the periodic table as well as of the lanthanides and actinides with a graphitic carbon modification having a grain size.ltoreq.150 .mu.m, and the graphite intercalation compound is converted by an oxidation agent into binary oxide of one or more elements of the groups Ib, IIa, IIb, IIIa, IIIb, IVa, IVb, Va, Vb, VIa, VIb, VIIb, VIII of the periodic table as well as of the lanthanides and actinides.
