The effect of copper oxide (CuO) and manganese oxide (MnO2) co-dopant on the densification behavior of 3 mol% yttria-stabilized zirconia was investigated. Green samples were prepared and sintered in air at temperatures ranging from 1250 to 1500 °C with a short holding time of 12 min. Sintered bodies...
