Mineral baddeleyite is the most natural occurring form of zirconia that bears a monoclinic crystalline structure. Ceramic powder of zirconia is widely used in injection molding. Zirconia possesses greater thermal expansion capacity as compared to alumina. It is biocompatible and has high chemical inertness, high fracture resistance and low thermal conductivity. Zirconia powder is employed in the production of dental implants through injection molding. The production of ceramic injection molding parts using yttrium oxide stabilized tetragonal zirconia appears to be feasible. The strength and variability of yttrium oxide stabilized tetragonal zirconia parts is usually more as compared to other conventional parts. Mullite zirconia is identified as a potential material for high temperature structural industry verticals owing to its high thermal shock resistance, high temperature strength, and low coefficient thermal expansion. The zirconia powder used in injection molding possesses the ability to fabricate the complex shapes that are made from the mullite zirconia composites. The zirconia powder is mainly used in the injection molding of optical fibers ferrules and wire bond nozzles. The zirconia-toughened alumina ceramics serve as interesting materials for biomedical and engineering industry verticals due to hardness, high strength and abrasion resistance. For this reason, the ceramic injection molding appears to be an attractive option for producing zirconia-toughened alumina. Zirconia is mainly used in industry verticals where alumina strength is considered to be insufficient.
