In this work ceramic foams of 3 and 8 mol% yttria-stabilized zirconia (3YSZ and 8YSZ) were manufactured by the replication method using polystyrene-polyurethane foams with pore sizes in the 7–10 ppi range. A second coating was carried out on presintered foams in order to thicken struts and hinder microstructural defects. The produced ceramic foams were structurally and thermomechanically characterized. Samples recoated with 3YSZ presented the highest relative densities (0.2±0.1) which contributed to a better mechanical and thermal behavior.

The present paper reports a microstructure inspection of powder fabrication of regulated structure Ti/Ti-based metal matrix composites (MMC) utilizing sacrificial NaCl particles. Blending, compaction and sintering of Ti and YSZ reinforced Ti compacts containing NaCl resulted in regulated foam structures with porosities between 45 and 70 pct. SEM observations indicated that three pore sizes and morphologies were formed while XRD analysis suggested that the yttria stabilized zirconia (YSZ) reinforcements are unstable at the high temperature sintering conditions considered in this study.

In some applications such as automotive oxygen sensor, 5mol% Y2O3stabilized zirconia (5YSZ) is generally used because it has both excellent ionic conductivity and mechanical properties. The automotive oxygen sensor would experience a cyclic change from high temperature (engine running) environment to the low temperature damp environment (in the tail pipe when vehicle stops). The conductivity change with coupled conditions of thermal cycle and dump environment in the 5mol%Y2O3ZrO2(5YSZ) system was examined by XRD,Impedance spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy (SEM) in this paper.
