Densification and microstructure of spark plasma sintered 7YSZ–Gd2O3 ceramic nano-composites
Spark plasma sintering (SPS) technique was used to densify 7 mol% yttria-stabilized zirconia (7YSZ) powder with Gd2O3-particles, at temperatures ranging between 1000 and 1200 °C. Fine dispersion of Gd2O3-particles into a full-densified matrix was achieved. Shrinkage and microstructure, as well as po...
