Preparation and research of new black zirconia ceramics.

The existing black zirconia has problems such as uneven color development, poor stability, expensive raw materials, and harm to the human body and the environment. In order to solve the above problems, this paper intends to use NiAlO, NiTiO, FeO as chromophore, zirconia as a matrix, and a solid-phase method is used to prepare high-performance black zirconia ceramics. The method avoids the introduction of toxic elements, and at the same time, it is more economical in the selection of color-developing pigments. The experimental results show that black zirconia ceramics with uniform color, continuous adjustment and high temperature stability can be obtained. When the sintering temperature is lower than 1450 °C and the color material mixing ratio is 10 wt.%, the mechanical properties and optical properties of the obtained samples optimum, the overall reflectance of the sample is less than 10 wt.%, which meets the conditions for market application. These black ceramics can be widely used in high-tech fields such as mobile phone backplanes, photovoltaic industry and high-end decorative materials, and have broad application prospects.
