Yttria-Stabilized Zirconia (YSZ) nanoparticles are high-performance ceramic materials known for their excellent thermal stability, ionic conductivity, and mechanical strength. The incorporation of yttria into the zirconia lattice stabilizes its crystal structure, preventing phase transitions that can lead to material degradation. This makes YSZ an ideal choice for applications requiring durability under extreme conditions.
Common uses include solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs), thermal barrier coatings, catalysis, and structural ceramics. YSZ’s resistance to high temperatures and chemical corrosion also makes it valuable in aerospace, energy, and biomedical industries.
