AbstractSubmicron particles of monoclinic ZrO2, with and without stabilizing oxides of CaO or Y2O3, have been subjected to pressures ranging from 0.5 to 30 kbars and temperatures ranging from 1300[degree sign] to 1750[degree sign]C. Heating rates of 1000[degree sign]C per hour followed by cooling rates of 500[degree sign]C per hour at pressure were needed to achieve translucent monoclinic and cubic stabilized ZrO2. Specimens with essentially theoretical density were formed by high-pressure hot-pressing (monoclinic ZrO2 = 5.61 g/cm3, 15 mole % CaO-stabilized cubic ZrO2 = 5.54 g/cm3, and 15 mole % Y2O3-stabilized cubic ZrO2 = 6.05 g/cm3). Photometric measurements indicated an average of 12% in-line light transmission for both types of ZrO2. A uniform increase in grain size ranging from 1 [mu] to 5 [mu] going from the center of the specimen to the outer edge was observed, due to pressure gradients encountered at temperature. A dislocation density of 107-109 cm-2 was determined for monoclinic and cubic ZrO2 pressed to 30 kbars and 1750[degree sign]C.
