Phenomena Occurring upon the Sintering of a Mixture of Yttria–Zirconia Nanometric Powder and Sub-Micrometric Pure Zirconia Powder

Mixtures of powders essentially differing in their particle morphology and size were applied to prepare polycrystals in a Y<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>-ZrO<sub>2</sub> system. An yttria–zirconia solid solution nanometric powder with a Y<sub>2</sub>O<su...
