Abstract

Strengthened and densified ceramic bodies are produced by hot pressing lead itanate powder into a lead titanate ceramic at a pressure from 1000 to 5000 psi and at a temperature from 700 to 1100.degree. C if the atmosphere is reducing or from 700 to 1200.degree. C if the atmosphere is oxidizing and by annealing the lead titanate ceramic at a temperature from 600 to 1100.degree. C in an oxidizing atmosphere for at least four hours.
