Abstract

This study describes an influence of zirconia addition on some porcelain properties, particularly 
mechanical properties such as hardness and strength, depending on results of some previous 
researches which describe the methods of porcelain strengthening and toughening due to use the 
porcelain in many applications in daily life, such as dental porcelain, electrical porcelain and 
sanitary ware from porcelain. Porcelain has very important properties which make it a suitable 
material to other promised applications. For this reason, it must be defined the last information to 
which the recent researches reached to benefit from those methods in an improving of the porcelain 
properties to use it in suitable applications. This study showed that it can be significantly benefited 
from the zirconia addition to porcelain in an improving of many properties for it.
