Abstract
We have studied the properties of nanocrystalline ZrO2〈3 mol % Y2O3〉 and 90 wt % ZrO2〈3 mol % Y2O3〉-10 wt % Al2O3 powders prepared via hydrothermal treatment of coprecipitated hydroxides at 210°C. The results demonstrate that Al2O3 doping raises the phase transition temperatures of the metastable low-temperature ZrO2 polymorphs and that the structural transformations of the ZrO2 and Al2O3 in the doped material inhibit each other.
