Abstract
A method of making a component of a ceramic discharge chamber comprising the steps of forming a ceramic composition including an aluminum powder, a binder and a grain growth inhibitor. The alumina powder has a tap density greater than 1.0 gram per cc. The ceramic composition is then die pressed to form a component preform. Next, the component preform is heated to remove at least a substantial portion of the binder.
