Alumina-zirconia composites (ATZs) are a class of advanced ceramics that have attracted significant attention due to their excellent mechanical properties.

The review begins with a brief introduction to the properties of zirconia and alumina ceramics. The different methods for combining zirconia and alumina ceramics are then discussed. The effects of sintering conditions on the tetragonal phase stability, densification, mechanical properties, evolution of microstructural and grain size of the alumina toughened zirconia are also presented.
