Abstract
Abstract A ceramic article is prepared by injecting a raw composition including an organic binder and ceramic material in which the binder comprises 8 to 30 parts by weight of atactic polypropylene based on 100 parts by weight of said ceramic material, and heating a raw molded article thus obtained so that said binder is thermally decomposed and evaporated.
