Abstract

The present invention relates to porous calcium zirconate/magnesia composites having a thermally and chemically stable porous structure, which consist of sintered compacts having a fine composite structure stable under high temperatures due to uniformly dispersed equimolar amounts of calcium zirconate [CazrO3] and magnesia [MgO] and controlled grain growth, and a method of producing the same, and the present porous composites are useful as, for instance, a functional material for filtering highly corrosion resistant materials, lightening members used at super-high temperatures, catalyst carriers, insulation or sound-absorbing materials, and the like.
