Abstract

Abstract A powdery material of minute composite ceramic particles having a dual structure, comprising the core formed of zirconium oxide and the outer shell formed of aluminum oxide, a process for producing thereof, which comprises introducing gaseous zirconium chloride into a combustion chamber provided with a constricting section at the center part thereof and a burner at the upper part thereof, introducing gaseous aluminum chloride into the combustion chamber at the constricting section or the lower part thereof, and thermally decomposing both the thus introduced zirconium chloride and aluminum chloride by a flame from said burner under an oxidative atmosphere, and an apparatus for producing thereof.
