Characteristics and Application Fields of Yttrium Stabilized Zirconia
Ⅰ. Characteristics of Yttrium Stabilized Zirconia
Yttrium stabilized zirconia, YSZ for short, is a ceramic material. Its structure is lattice oxide with certain conductivity. YSZ has good thermal expansion coefficient, high melting point, high hardness and low thermal conductivity. At the same time, because of its high stability and biocompatibility, it is widely used in the manufacture of various biomedical instruments.
Ⅱ.Application Field of Yttria-Stabilized Zirconia
1. High temperature structural materials
YSZ can be used as a high-temperature structural material because of its excellent heat resistance and mechanical strength. In aerospace, electric power, metallurgy and other fields, YSZ is widely used to manufacture high-temperature pipes, stoves, catalysts and so on.
