Abstract

Fast densification of 8YSZ ceramics under a high pressure of 4.5 GPa was carried out at different temperatures (800, 1000, 1450 °C), by which a high relative density above 92% could be obtained. FT-Raman spectra indicate that the 8YSZ underwent a phase transition from partially tetragonal to partially cubic phase as temperatures increase from 1000 to 1450 °C when sintering under high pressure. The electrical properties of the samples under different high-pressure sintering conditions were measured by complex impedance method. The total conductivity of 0.92 × 10−2 S cm−1 at 800 °C has been obtained for 8YSZ under high pressure at 1450 °C, which is about 200 °C lower than that of the samples prepared by conventional pressureless sintering.
