Abstract

A fired body and method for producing the body that involves compounding the components of powder materials, binder, aqueous solvent for the binder, and non-solvent with respect to at least the solvent, binder, and powder materials. The non-solvent is made up of a high molecular weight organic portion having a molecular weight of greater than 200, and a low molecular weight organic portion having a molecular weight of up to 200. The components are mixed and plasticized to form a plasticized mixture which is then shaped to form a green body. The green body is then dried and fired.
