ZIRCONIA CERAMIC IS A
HIGH-TECH MATERIAL
Zirconium oxide-magnesia (also known as zirconium oxide-magnesia or ZrO2-MgO for short) can be stabilized. Zirconia (ZrO2) is a ceramic material that in pure form at room temperature has a monoclinic crystal structure known as "phase monarchy". However, at higher temperatures a phase transformation can occur in which the zirconia converts to a cubic crystal structure with higher oxygen conductivity known as "phase tetragon".
The addition of magnesium oxide (MgO) as a stabilizer can lower this phase transformation temperature and improve the stability of the cubic phase of zirconia at room temperature. This material is often referred to as "stabilized zirconia" because it maintains the cubic phase even at room temperature, which improves its technical properties. Known for its high oxygen conductivity, chemical resistance, thermal stability and mechanical strength, the stabilized zirconia-magnesia is used in various applications such as ceramic coatings, fuel cells, abrasives, high temperature insulators and other high temperature applications.
