Influence of the water content of milling medium on the properties of reaction bonded aluminium oxide powder precursors and their sintered mechanical properties is studied. As a result of interaction between absolute ethanol and aluminium, the water content of the mixture milled in absolute ethanol increased to 4.7%. Mechanical properties such as bending strength and toughness of the sintered ceramics depend on the water content of the powder precursors. Higher bending strength, 350MPa and toughness, 3.7MPam1/2 were observed in the sample milled in absolute ethanol. Higher water content of the mixture milled in absolute ethanol is the main reason of the high mechanical properties.
