The effect of nanometric zirconia particle additives on microstructure and mechanical properties of dense alumina

Zirconia additives have favourable influence on mechanical properties of dense alumina polycrystals. It results from the martensitic transformation of tetragonal zirconia particles into monoclinic symmetry at the crack tip propagating through a material. Usually applied zirconia particles were of su...
