G. Gritzner et P. Steger, Y2O3-CEO2-DOPED ZRO2 CERAMICS FROM COPRECIPITATED OXALATE PRECURSORS, Journal of the European Ceramic Society, 12(6), 1993, pp. 461-466
Y2O3-CeO2-doped ZrO2 ceramics were prepared from coprecipitated oxalat
e precursor material. The thermal decomposition behaviour fo the oxala
tes was studied to find proper conditions for conversion to the oxides
. The properties of the calcined oxide powders were measured and sinte
ring conditions to prepare ceramic specimen were investigated. The mec
hanical properties of the sintered bodies are reported and their relat
ions to composition and sintering conditions will be discussed.
