Abstract
The morphology and particle size of yttria (3 and 8 mol%)-doped zircon ia/alumina (0 to 20 wt%) coprecipitated powders were studied using mea surements of surface area, X-ray diffraction, DTA, infrared spectrosco py, and TEM. Shrinkage behaviour of the isopressed composites was stud ied by isothermal and non-isothermal experiments. The effect of Al2O3 content on the microhardness (H) and fracture toughness (K-IC) of zirc onia/Al2O3 composites was studied by the Vicker's indentation techniqu e. The influence of Al2O3 addition (10 wt%) on the electrical properti es of tetragonal/Al2O3, and cubic zirconia/Al2O3 composites also was s tudied.
