Domestic commercially accessible α-Al2O3 powders are examined and evaluated for use as raw material for the production of high-strength ceramic. Additional chemical purification and mechanical processing of GRT alumina make it possible to improve the ceramic properties of the material. In terms of density and microhardness the ceramic obtained from fine-crystalline alumina produced by Nanokompozit JSC surpasses all materials examined, including ceramic obtained from Almatis-1200 alumina.
