Nanostructured Ceramic Oxides with a Slow Crack Growth Resistance Close to Covalent Materials
Jérôme Chevalier, Sylvain Deville, Gilbert Fantozzi +5
Oxide ceramics are sensitive to slow crack growth because adsorption of water can take place at the crack tip, leading to a strong decrease of the surface energy in humid (or air)…
