Origin of unusual sintering phenomena in compacts of chloride-derived 3Y-TZP nanopowders

After evaluating three alternative possibilities, the present study shows that seemingly minor amounts (at least as low as 0.06 wt%) of chlorine impurities are responsible for the poor sintering behavior observed in chloride-derived 3 mol% yttria stabilized zirconia (3Y-TZP) nanopowders....
