Abstract
The results of Spark Plasma Sintering (SPS) synthesis of different types of ceramic materials for various industrial applications are presented. A high quality of ceramics is achieved through the originality of the developed approach based on combining SPS technology with other methods of inorganic synthesis, for instance, with sol–gel technology. The suggested approach enables one to synthesize, at the first stage, nanostructured powders of inorganic materials, whose subsequent consolidation by the SPS method ensures the formation of nanostructured ceramics with unique physicochemical characteristics and properties.
