  • NANOSTRUCTURED COMPOSITE METAL OXIDE MATERIAL, PRODUCTION METHOD AND USE
    Publication number: 20140370291
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an alumina-zirconia nanostructured composite material characterised in that the content of elements other than Al, Zr, Hf, Y, Ce and O is less than 100 ppm, the Cl content is less than 1 ppm, at least one of the components has a mean grain size in the final material smaller than 500 nm, and at least 1/10 of the particles are in the intragranular position. Another object of the invention is the process for obtaining said material, as well as the use thereof.
