Tóm tắt

Simultaneous decomposition of yttrium and zirconium alkozides was used to obtain an almost ideal mixture of powders of high surface activity. From this powder a translucent body, “Zyttrite,” was made with a grain size of less than 1μ. The mixed oxide was consolidated into a stabilized body by firing at 1000°C for 30 min. This is indicative of a phenomenal increase in solid state reactivity. High‐density fully stabilized cubic solid solutions of 6 mole % Y2O3‐ZrO2 were obtained on sintering at 1450°C. A typical specimen had a density of 5.9 g/cm3, a coefficient of thermal expansion of 11 × 10−6 in./in.°C, and a grain size of 2 to 4μ. Test pieces withstood 2200°C firings in air for 262 hr with grain growth of 35 to 50μ and virtually no change in composition, density, or stabilization.
