Effect of alcohol solvent in mixing process on the microstructure and sintering behavior of ceramic-based composites was investigated in detail. The mixture of fine ceramic powders was prepared through the conventional ball-milling method with various alcohol media. The particle distributions of fine ceramic powders were strongly dependent on the kind of alcohol employed during ball-milling. Ceramic-based composites were fabricated by hot-pressing the mixture of fine ceramic powders. Their microstructures and some mechanical properties of the ceramic-based composites were evaluated. It was found that the viscosity of alcohol, surface tension and contact angle greatly affect the sinterability and some of the mechanical properties of ceramic-based composites.

The wear characteristics of ZrO<sub>2</sub> balls, which were prepared under several conditions, were investigated.<br>The wear loss of ZrO<sub>2</sub> balls was attributed to the materials of the tank, such as Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>, ZrO<sub>2</sub>, and urethane. The wear loss of ZrO<sub>2</sub> balls using a mill with an Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> lining was larger than that using a mill with ZrO<sub>2</sub> or urethane. This result indicated that the wear particles of the Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> lining worn by ZrO<sub>2</sub> balls attacked the surface of the ZrO<sub>2</sub> balls and promoted the wear of the balls, because Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> particles are harder than ZrO<sub>2</sub> balls.<br>Also, the wear loss of the ZrO<sub>2</sub> balls depended mainly on the grain size, fracture toughness and strength of the balls.<br>The SEM of the worn surface showed some defects and pores, and the wear mode was primarily intergranular.<br>It was supposed that phase transformation also had an influence on the wear of the balls.
