A zirconium metal oxide fiber comprises zirconium oxide and a metal oxide. The fiber is made by adding a metal oxide in a suitable form to a colloidal dispersion of an amorphous zirconium polymer. The mixed colloidal dispersion is subsequently made into a fiber. The fiber may be used as a substitute for glass fiber in the manufacture of paper and paper-like materials. The fiber's thickness is substantially uniform and has a length usually in excess of one micron.
