Disclosed herein are compositions containing zirconium and cerium having a surprisingly small particle size. The compositions disclosed herein contain zirconium, cerium, optionally yttrium, and optionally one or more other rare earth oxides other than cerium and yttrium. The compositions exhibit a particle size characterized by a D.sub.90 value of about 5 μm to about 30 μm and a D.sub.99 value of about 5 um to about 40 um. Further disclosed are processes of producing these compositions using oxalic acid and supercritical drying in the process. The compositions can be used as a catalyst and/or part of a catalytic system. The composition is prepared by co-precipitation using oxalic acid and supercritical drying.
