High surface area ZrO2-TiO2 powders in the entire compositional range have been prepared by a coprecipitation method. The sample with 1:1 ZrO2.TiO2 molar ratio is amorphous until crystallisation of ZrTiO4, occurring at 970 K in DTA experiments. The presence of ZrO2 hinders the anatase crystallisation and its transformation into rutile, while the presence of TiO2 hinders the crystallisation of zirconia but favours monoclinic with respect to tetragonal zirconia. Solubilities of TiO2 into the monoclinic ZrO2 phase and into the ZrTiO4 phase, as well as of ZrO2 into the rutile phase have been found. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science Limited. All rights reserved.

Abstract
High surface area ZrO2-TiO2 powders in the entire compositional range have been prepared by a coprecipitation method. The sample with 1:1 ZrO2.TiO2 molar ratio is amorphous until crystallisation of ZrTiO4, occurring at 970 K in DTA experiments. The presence of ZrO2 hinders the anatase crystallisation and its transformation into rutile, while the presence of TiO2 hinders the crystallisation of zirconia but favours monoclinic with respect to tetragonal zirconia. Solubilities of TiO2 into the monoclinic ZrO2 phase and into the ZrTiO4 phase, as well as of ZrO2 into the rutile phase have been found. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science Limited. All rights reserved.
