Alumina-Toughened Zirconia (ATZ) is a composite material that combines zirconia with alumina to enhance toughness, strength, and crack resistance. Its unique properties make it ideal for applications in dental and engineering fields, where reliability and performance are crucial. Ongoing research focuses on improving wear resistance and reducing production costs, ensuring ATZ meets real-world demands effectively. The microstructure of ATZ, characterized by transformation toughening, is...
