Many ceramics are produced with a processing sequence that includes spray drying or ball milling a slurry. To produce ceramics with the best properties and to facilitate ball milling or spray drying, a dispersant is normally added to the ceramic slurry. Ammonium citrate and polyethylenimine have been found to produce ceramic slurries with the desired characteristics. The dispersants appear especially well suited for use with ferrite slurries.
