Ceria Stabilised Zirconia Micro Powder Description
Studies from 2016 established that CSZ ceramics exhibit improved resistance to degradation at low temperatures in comparison with YSZ. When pure CeO2 is added to aluminium oxide and the particles form a CeO2‐stabilised ZrO2 ceramic, the toughness can be increased if the additive is provided in the correct proportion.

Ceria Stabilised Zirconia Micro Powder FAQs
Q1: What are the principal properties of Ce-TZP Powder?
A: The principal properties include high toughness, high fracture strength, ionic conductivity, high thermal stability, wear resistance and chemical inertness. When compared with Yttrium Oxide-Stabilised Zirconium Dioxide (YSZ), it demonstrates improved resistance to decomposition at low temperatures.
Q2: Why is ceria-stabilised zirconium dioxide preferred for dental and orthopaedic implants?
A: Ce-TZP is favoured due to its toughness, biocompatibility and resistance to low-temperature degradation. These properties ensure the longevity and reliability of implants under physiological conditions.
Q3: Which particle sizes are available for Ce-TZP Powder?
A: Ce-TZP Powder is supplied in various particle sizes, ranging typically from nanometres to micrometres. The selection depends on the specific application requirements.
