Abstract
A sintered body where alumina is dispersed in a zirconia matrix in which yttria has been doped to form a solid solution can be obtained by compacting a mixed powder comprising zirconia or yttria-stabilized zirconia and yttrium-aluminum complex oxide and sintering the resulting compacted body. This sintered body comprises a fine zirconia matrix in which fine alumina particles are dispersed to strengthen it and is excellent in flexural strength and fracture toughness and has a practically effective oxygen ionic conductivity.
