Improving the Fracture Toughness of Yttria-Stabilised Zirconia: A Next Generation Structural Ceramic
Zirconia is an interesting and versatile material used in a wide range of applications. For highly desirable mechanical properties, Yttria-Stabilised Zirconia (YSZ) is especially useful for demanding industrial applications that require high strength/wear and fracture-resistance. 3 mol-% YSZ (3YSZ) is widely used as a structural ceramic as a result of its high flexural strength and … Weiterlesen …
