Abstract
Mechanical properties and microstructure of hot-pressed zirconia-based composites containing additions of chromium carbide or chromium oxide particles were investigated. The composites showed significantly high er elastic properties, hardness and fracture toughness compared with t he pure matrix. The microstructure of the materials was investigated u sing scanning and transmission electron microscopy as well as energy-d ispersive X-ray spectrometry.
