Abstract

ZrC–ZrO2 composite ceramic microspheres were prepared by internal gelation combined with carbothermic reduction using fructose as a chelating agent and carbon source. Fructose in the precursor solution formed complex with zirconium ions, which was conducive to the refining of the microstructure of the sintered composite. ZrC–ZrO2 composite with ZrC content as high as 60 wt% could be prepared.
