Abstract: The influence of compacting pressure on the structure and mechanical properties of sintered ceramics based on weakly crystalline potassium polytitanate with a composition close to K$_2$O $\cdot$ 6TiO$_2$ has been studied. It is established that an increase in the pressure during the uniaxial cold pressing of compacts leads to the formation of a ceramic structure that consists of layers formed by compacted nanofibers of crystalline potassium hexatitanate. Relationship between the structure and mechanical properties of obtained ceramics is analyzed.
