Fine powders of aluminates of rare-earth elements (REE) are obtained by wet combustion. The solid-phase synthesis of lanthanum-gadolinium aluminate is studied. It is shown that the desired phase can be obtained at temperatures to 750°C. The firing regimes that make it possible to obtain REE-aluminate ceramic with low open porosity and relative density to 99% of the theoretical value are determined.
