How do the grains slide in fine-grained zirconia polycrystals at high temperature? [PDF]
Degradation of mechanical properties of zirconia polycrystals is hardly discussed in terms of solution-precipitation grain-boundary sliding due to experimental controversies over imaging of intergranular amorphous phases at high and room temperatures.

Densification behavior of yttria-stabilized zirconia powders for solid oxide fuel cell electrolytes
Yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) is the most common electrolyte material for solid oxide fuel cells. Herein, we conducted a comparative study on the densification behavior of three different kinds of commercial 8 mol% YSZ powders: (i) TZ-8Y (Tosoh, Japan)

Substoichiometric ultrathin zirconia films cause strong metal-support interaction [PDF]
The strong metal-support interaction (SMSI) leads to substantial changes of the properties of an oxide-supported catalyst after annealing under reducing conditions. The common explanation is the formation of heavily reduced, ultrathin oxide films covering metal particles.

Flash microwave pressing of zirconia [PDF]
Microwave Pressing is a promising way to reduce microwave sintering temperatures and stabilize microwave powder materials processing. A multi-physics simulation was conducted of the regulated pressure-assisted microwave cavity. This simulation took into consideration resonance phenomena and the nonlinear temperature-dependent material parameters of ...

Low-temperature ageing of zirconia-toughened alumina ceramics and its implication in biomedical implants [PDF]
Changes in crystalline phases resulting from low-temperature ageing of different yttria doped and non-doped zirconia-toughened alumina composites and nanocomposites were investigated under controlled humidity and temperature conditions in autoclave. A classical powder mixing processing route and a new modified colloidal processing route were used to ...

Potential Tribological and Antibacterial Benefits of Pulsed Laser Deposited Zirconia Thin Film on Ti6Al4V Bio-alloy [PDF]
Demand for artificial body implants has been on the rise over the years. However, wear and bacterial infection are identified as two major reasons that can lead to inflammation and implant failure. In this communication, the advantages of pulsed laser deposited zirconia thin film on Ti6Al4V bio-alloy at room temperature and at an elevated substrate ...

Characterizations of Synthetic 8mol% YSZ with Comparison to 3mol %YSZ for HT-SOFC [PDF]
In this work, Yttria (Y2O3) was successfully doped into tetragonal 3mol% yttria stabilized Zirconia (3YSZ) by high energy-mechanical milling to synthesize 8mol% yttria stabilized Zirconia (8YSZ) used as an electrolyte for high temperature solid oxide ...
