Abstract

The present work deals with the effect of the rare earth nature and the content of the oxide dopants on the stabilization process of zirconia based ceramics. There are two main interests in our work. The first is to verify the possibility of stabilizing a cubic structure of zirconia using a natural mixture of rare earth elements as dopant, and second, to study and to characterize its basic physical-chemical properties such as phase diagrams, zirconia stabilization models and dopant distribution.
