Abstract: Yttria-neodymia double stabilized ZrO2-based nanocomposites with 40vol% electrical conductive TiCN were fully densified by means of pulsed electric current sintering (PECS) in the 1400–1500°C range. The Y2O3 stabilizer content was fixed at 1mol% whereas the Nd2O3 co-stabilizer content was varied between 0.75 and 2mol% in order to optimise the mechanical properties. The mechanical (Vickers hardness, fracture toughness and bending strength), electrical (electrical resistivity) and microstructural properties were investigated and the hydrothermal stability in steam at 200°C was assessed. The nanocomposites with 1–1.75mol% Nd2O3, PECS at 1400 or 1450°C, have an excellent fracture toughness of 8MPam1/2, although the grain size of both ZrO2 and TiCN phases after densification is in the 100±30nm range. Moreover, the composites combine a hardness of about 13GPa, a bending strength of 1.1–1.3GPa with a low electrical resistivity (1.6–2.2×10−5 Ωm) allowing electrical discharge machining. The hydrothermal stability of the double stabilizer nanocomposites was higher than for yttria-stabilized ZrO2-based composites with the same overall stabilizer content. [Copyright &y& Elsevier] |
