Abstract

There are various types of microstructure in the TZP materials and their composite materials. The fine-grained microstructure is well-known as the basic microstructural type of TZP materials. Y-TZP and Ce-TZP belong to this group. The large-grained microstructure can exist in the TZP consisting of the tetragonal phase with low metastability, that is, Y-TZP doped with TiO2 and Ce-TZP containing a high CeO2 content. The composite material between Y-TZP and β-lanthanum alumina possessed a unique microstructure including elongated grains of β-Al2O3 type structure. This study provides a summary of the mechanical properties of these TZP and β-Al2O3 type structure composite materials, and points out how the mechanical behavior depends on the microstructural features.
