Original Complex Sol Gel Process (CSGP) has been elaborated. In CSGP to the hydroxyalacetoate cations sols a strong complexing agent with high reduction power e.g. ascorbic acid is introduced. Application of CSGP facilitates of synthesis advantage ceramic materials as high temperature superconductors (e.g. YBCO and BSCCO), bioceramics (e.g. hydroxyapatite) and cathodic materials for rechargeable Li-batteries (e.g. LiMn2O4, LiCoO2, LiNi0.5Co0.5O2) in shape of powders as well as coatings on mettalic substrates. A new gelation process CSGP by emulsion technique has been used for preparation of medium sized (diameter below 100 µm) hollow spheres of e.g. Al2O3, Fe2O3.

Variants of the CSGP process have been protected by the Patents: No. P295195 (June 1992) and No. P300557 (October 1993).
