Abstract
A finely-divided cerium metal/metalloid oxide mixture, containing pyrogenically produced metal/metalloid oxide and 0.001 to 95 wt. % cerium oxide, has a specific surface area between 10 and 400 m.sup.2 /g. The mixture is produced by mixing pyrogenically produced metal/metalloid oxide, having a specific surface area between 30 and 400 m.sup.2 /g, with a cerium compound decomposable to an oxide at elevated temperature, the cerium compound being thermally decomposed to the oxide. The cerium oxide-metal/metalloid oxide mixture can be used as a polishing agent or filler.
