Title: Influence of grain size on the strength of ceramics made from hafnium dioxide partly stabilized with yttrium oxide

The aim of this investigation was to study the mechanical properties of fine-grained ceramics of tetragonal hafnium dioxide with additions of yttrium oxide. The strength of fine-grained ceramics made from hafnium oxide with an addition of 3-5% Y/sub 2/O/sub 3/ largely depends on the size of the component grains. Ceramic with a grain size of about 1 ..mu..m containing 4% Y/sub 2/O/sub 3/ has a bending strength of about 480 N/mm/sup 2/, which is twice as high as for ceramics made of cubic HfO/sub 2/.
