Abstract

Formation of zirconia nanocrystals in the course of thermal treatment of an X-ray amorphous zirconium oxyhydroxide was studied. It was shown that the formation of tetragonal and monoclinic polymorphs of ZrO2 in the temperature range from 500 to 700°C occurs owing to dehydration and crystallization of amorphous hydroxide. An increase of the temperature up to 800°C and higher activates mass transfer processes and, as a result, activates the nanoparticle growth and increases the fraction of the phase based on monoclinic modification of ZrO2 due to mass transfer from the nanoparticles with the non-equilibrium tetragonal structure. Herewith, formed ZrO2 nanocrystals with monoclinic structure have a broad size distribution of crystallites, and the average crystallite size after thermal treatment at 1200°C for 20 min is about 42 nm.
