Abstract
An experimental arrangement capable of monitoring temperature changes from 0.01 to 0.1 K has been successfully tested for registering the te mperature evolution occurring during the tetragonal to monoclinic tran sformation of an alumina/ceria-stabilized tetragonal zirconia polycrys tal (Al2O3/Ce-TZP). The arrangement is based on a very small thermisto r. The data obtained have been used for evaluating the thermal diffusi vity of the Al2O3/Ce-TZP composites.
