Abstract Y2O3-stabilized ZrO2 and Y2O3-stabilized ZrO2/10 mol%Al2O3 composite both consisting of homogeneous nano-sized grains were successfully fabricated by a pulse electric current sintering through solution chemistry technique. The relative density was above 97% for both the obtained materials, and the grain size was less than 90 nm and 40 nm for the ZrO2 monolith and the ZrO2/Al2O3 composite, respectively. The materials showed superplastic behavior in compression at temperature of 1200°C.
