Features:
Yttrium oxide is used as the stabiliser. This material is predominantly tetragonal in structure.
Y-TZP has the highest flexural strength of all the zirconia based materials, particularly when HIPed. The fine grain size of Y-TZP lends itself to be used in cutting tools where a very sharp edge can be achieved and maintained due to its high wear resistance.
Key Features:
Excellent mechanical strength
Excellent wear resistance
High impact resistance
Very low conductivity
Main Applications
Structural ceramics
Wear parts
