Abstract
Thermo-decomposition of precursor complexes was utilized to synthesize scan dia-stabilized zirconia (ScSZ) with the composition (Sc2O3)(0.08)(ZrO2)(0.9 2). Mixtures of precursors with different contents of EDTA (ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid) were synthesized through a homogenous soft chemical proce ss, enabling the influences of ligand content on the calcination and sinter ing behaviors to be investigated. ScSZ polycrystals in a predominately cubi c and rhombohedral polyphase were obtained after sintering at 1300 degrees C for 6 h.
