    Unprecedented simultaneous enhancement in damage tolerance and fatigue resistance of zirconia/Ta composites

    Dense (>98 th%) and homogeneous ceramic/metal composites were obtained by spark plasma sintering (SPS) using ZrO2 and lamellar metallic powders of tantalum or niobium (20 vol.%) as starting materials. The present...
