Mullite ceramics have rather modest mechanical properties at room temperature. However, the strength and fracture toughness can be improved by adding ZrO 2, i.e. through transformationtoughening mechanisms. The present study has been devoted to the preparation of mullite and ZrO2-mullite composites

Wear and friction are often minimized at sliding contacts in moving equipment parts by the use of lubricants. These lubricants become more and more unwanted for environmental and maintenance reasons. This causes an increased interest in the development of ceramic materials with stable sliding contac
We measured the wear resistances of alumina, alumina/silicon carbide composite and alumina/mullite composite by abrasive wear. And we studied the influence of fracture mode and worn surface pullout on wear resistance. The results are as follows: the main wear mechanisms of alumina and alumina/silico
