Abstract

ABSTRACTWell-crystallized Y2O3 -ZrO2 powder of 12nm crystallite size was synthesized by RoAogenious precipitation under hydrothermal condition at 180°C for 1 hour. This powder consisted of tetragonal zirconia. After calcination and ball milling, the crystiilite size was 22 nm and the tetragonal phase was reduced to 55% by ball milling. The average grain size was 0.5 µm and specific: surface area was 20 m /g. Highly dense TZP(> 99%) with a homogeneous microstructure was obtained by sintering this powder at 1400°C for 2 hours.
