About Yttria-Stabilized Zirconia (8 mole %) a Nanopowder

Yttria-StabilizedZirconia (8 mole %) - Nanopowder

Product Code: 6211619

Yttriafully Stabilized Zirconia (with 8 mol% Y₂O₃) is a commonly used and well characterized ceramic electrolyte material. Thisnanoscale grade of YSZ-8 powder (with crystallite size of 5 - 10 nm and surfacearea of > 100 m²/gram) is offered for use as a sintering aid or as anactivity-enhancing additive in composite cathodes and cermet anodes. Asprovided, the nanoscale YSZ-8 powder is agglomerated and needs to be further processed in order for optimum dispersion.

Technical Specifications:

• Formulation: (Y₂O₃)_0.08(ZrO₂)_0.92
• Surface Area: > 100 m/g
• Primary Crystallite Size: 5 - 10 nanometers (approximation based on surfacearea calculations)
• Secondary Particle Size: Softly agglomerated

Advanced Material for Diverse Applications

From solid oxide fuel cells to dental ceramics, Yttria-Stabilized Zirconia nanomaterial offers significant advantages due to its high chemical purity, robust fracture toughness, and exceptional thermal stability. These properties support usage in environments involving extreme heat or mechanical stress, making it a preferred choice across various high-tech industries.


Superior Structural Stability and Performance

The tetragonal/cubic crystal structure stabilized with 8 mole % yttria ensures that the nanopowder maintains its mechanical strength and structural integrity, even at elevated temperatures. This makes it exceptionally reliable for applications such as thermal barrier coatings, where both durability and thermal resistance are critical.
