Abstract

Tetragonal zirconia powder with 3 mol% Y2O3 mas mixed with up to 30 vol% of ${\beta}$-SiC powders, and the mixtures were hot-pressed at 1500$^{\circ}C$ for 60 min under a pressure of 30 MPa in Ar atmosphere. Flexural strength and fracture toughness were measured at room-and high-temperature (1000$^{\circ}C$). Evolution of microstructure was also conducted to investigate the effects of SiC addition on the properties of 3Y-TZP ceramics. Average grain size of the composites was about 0.5 $\mu\textrm{m}$, and decreased with SiC addition. Both room- and high-temperature mechanical properties of the composites were improved with SiC content. Particularly, high-temperature strength and fracture toughness of 3Y-TZP/30v/o SiC composite were twice as high as those of 3Y-TZP. The hardness of the composites also increased with SiC content and reached maximum value at 3Y-TZP/30v/o SiC composite.
