    摘要: A disclosure is provided for methods to prepare high-strength and high-toughness partially stabilized zirconia (PSZ) materials by incorporating a starting ceramic powder in which the stabilizing oxide agent is pre-alloyed with the zirconia material powder. The ceramic powder is pre-stabilized so there is little or no remaining free stabilizing oxide, thereby resulting in an improved material that is more convenient to process using conventional ceramic processing techniques.
