Abstract: Zirconium and yttrium oxide-based composition with a specific surface area of at least 12 m 2/g following calcination at 1000° C. for 10 hours. This composition is obtained via a method wherein a mixture of zirconium and yttrium compounds is precipitated with a base; the resulting precipitate-containing medium is heated; a compound selected from anionic surfactants, non-ionic surfactants, polyethylene glycols, carboxylic acids and the salts thereof and carboxymethylated fatty alcohol ethoxylate-type surfactants is then added to said precipitate, and, finally, the precipitate is calcined. Said composition can be used as a catalyst.

Abstract: Thermal and/or acoustic insulation materials based on dried precipitated silica, having a total pore volume of from 1 to 5 cm3/g and optionally containing reinforcing fillers and/or opacifying agents, are prepared by: (A) filtering an aqueous dispersion D containing precipitated silica particles in a filter press, whereby a compacted filter cake is obtained; and then (B) drying the filter cake in the compacted state as obtained after step (A).
Abstract: The composition is based on zirconium oxide and at least one additive selected from zirconium oxide and at least one additive chosen from praseodymium, lanthanum or neodymium oxides, has a specific surface of at least 29 m 2/g after calcination at 1000° C. during a period of 10 hours and is obtained by a method wherein a mixture of zirconium compounds and additive is precipitated with a base; the medium thus obtained, containing a precipitate, is heated and a compound chosen from anionic surfactants, non-ionic surfactants, polyethylene glycols, carboxylic acids and the salts thereof and surfactants such as the ethoxylates of caroboxymethyl fatty alcohols is added to the compound and the precipitate is calcinated; the composition can be used as a catalyst.
