Hydroxyapaptite Coating on Zirconia Toughened Alumina Nanocomposite by Biomimetic Method, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Nemati, Ali (Supervisor) ; Salahi, Esmaeil (Co-Advisor)
Abstract
Zirconia toughened alumina (ZTA) Nanocomposites were prepared using nano sized Zirconia (ZrO2) powders doped with 3% mol of yttria (Y2O3) nanopowders and the sintering behavior at different temperature (1450 °C, 1550 °C and 1650 °C) were studied. The ZTA composite with different amount of partially stabilized Zirconia (PSZ)(5, 10, 15 and 20% mol) were prepared via axial pressing and then sintered to achieve maximum densification. After that phase changes of the samples were monitored. SEM was used for microstructural study and hardness and fracture toughness were determined by means of Vickers indentation. X-ray diffraction pattern showed that at constant composition, tetragonal zirconia...
