Gelcasting is a very useful technique for producing ceramic green parts with complex shapes. Although it has been successfully applied to ceramic systems consisting of micron size powders, there is little report on gelcasting of ceramics containing nanoparticles. In this work, ceramic system with na
Unlubricated friction and wear tests of CeβTZP/Al~2~O~3~ nanocomposites against bearing steel were performed. In order to elucidate the wear mecahnism, the morphological investigation and phase structural analysis of worn surfaces were carried out by Xβray diffractometer and scanning electron micros
## Abstract Recently zirconia/alumina composites have been examined by many researchers as the new generation of bearing materials in total joint replacements. In this study, the phase stability of a CeβTZP/Al~2~O~3~ nanocomposite and conventional YβTZP after aging, and its influence on wear resist
