Mechanical properties and grain growth inhibition in the system Al2O3:c-ZrO2

  • 1. Dept. of Materials Science and Engineering, Lehigh Univ., Bethlehem, PA (USA)

Description

The grain coarsening in a 50:50 volume percent Al2O3:c-ZrO2 composite is shown to be severely limited even after long heat treatments at high temperatures (100 hours at 1650 degrees C). The strength behavior, measured by an indentation-strength-in-bending (ISIB) method, shows a rule-of-mixtures type behavior. The microstructural stability at high temperatures yields reliability in the mechanical properties which has important implications with regard to fiber-reinforcement technology
