The characteristics of magnesia‐, calcia‐, and ceria‐stabilized zirconia are described. They were determined by two techniques: (1) the National Bureau of Standards high‐temperature X‐ray analysis of sintered specimens and (2) room‐temperature X‐ray analysis of specimens heat‐treated at 1180°C. up to 100 hours. Also reported is an investigation of the ternary system Ti‐Zr‐O, with particular emphasis on the binary systems TiO‐ZrO 2 and Ti‐ZrO 2 . Data are presented on the stability of the compound ZrTiO 4 and on the inability to confirm the existence of zirconium suboxides.
