INDENTATION BEHAVIOR OF ALLOYED ZIRCONIA CERAMICS
The hardness behaviour of four partially stabilized zirconias has been examined as a function of load and temperature. For all materials, it was found that as the load was decreased the hardness increased, by up to 50%. However, a further reduction in load caused a drastic reduction in hardness. The...
