Slip casting of yttria-stabilized tetragonal zirconia polycrystals

Journal Article · · J. Am. Ceram. Soc.; (United States)

The rheological and casting parameters of 3-mol%-yttria-stabilized tetragonal zirconia polycrystalline (Y-TZP) powder obtained by a wet-chemical coprecipitation route have been studied. Colloidal stability has been studied through zeta potential measurements. An organic surfactant has been used as deflocculant. Viscosity, casting rate, and green densities have been determined for suspensions with 28.2, 33.6, and 40.3 vol% solids content. Relative density, grain size, and t-ZrO/sub 2/ evolution versus temperature and soaking time are also reported.
