Zirconium titanate and magnesium aluminate spinel precursors were prepared by non-hydrolytic sol-gel method using ethanol as oxygen donor. The gels and calcined powders were investigated by differential thermal analysis (DTA), thermogravimetry analysis (TG), X-ray diffraction (XRD). The results show that the ZrTiO4and MgAl2O4crystallized at low temperature of 550 °C and 700 °C, respectively. It indicated that the highly homogeneous zirconium titanate and magnesium aluminate gels were aslo obtained by nonhydrolytic sol-gel process using ethanol as oxygen donor. The particle size distribution measured by laser scattering exhibit that ZrTiO4and MgAl2O4powders were large soft agglomerates which could be broken through milling process.
