Abstract
Chemical vapor synthesis provides crystalline, non-agglomerated, nano-powders of zirconia and zirconia doped with alumina with narrow size distributions and average grain and particle sizes between 3 and 5 nm. The sintering of these materials into dense, nanocrystalline ceramics of uniform microstructure is investigated. Grain growth inhibition is observed for zirconia doped with 5 mol% alumina compared to pure zirconia.
