This invention is directed to the production of ceramic alloys consisting essentially of ZrO2, titania, and yttria or rare earth oxides such as gadolina, ytterbia, neodinia, and ceria. Mole % concentration values as low as .25 mole % for yttria have been found to provide a hard and tough ceramic alloy in the presence of the titania-zirconia body. These compositions have been found to produce effective hard and tough ceramic bodies when mixed with refractory fibers and/or whiskers and hard refractory ceramics. |
