Magnesia-doped partially stability zirconia ceramics containing 10% MgO (Mg-PSZ) that was alloyed with different concentration of CeO2 were sintered at 1550~1600 ℃ for 2 h in air and then aged at 1500 ℃ for different time. The obtained results show that addition of CeO2 increase the stability of tetragonal/cubic zirconia and activate the densification process. A microstructure of a fine grain matrix with random distributions of net-shape grains was obtained while samples contained 4%~10% CeO2 sintered at 1580 ℃ for 2 h. With the increasing of ageing time, tetragonal zirconia precipitates in c-ZrO2 solid solution were interweaved into nanoporous microstructure that might be benefitial to the improvement of fracture toughness at elevated temperature.
