Abstract
Modified Small Punch (MSP) test techniques have been used to evaluate the strength of Mo/PSZ (partially stabilized zirconia) composites from room temperature to 1573K. The dependence of deformation, strength and fracture behavior of the composites on temperature, composition and microstructure is discussed in detail. The results show that the high temperature strength, which depends on the composition as well as the microstructure, can be simply measured by the MSP tests. Linear relationship is obtained between the MSP strengths and 4-point bending strengths.
