When partially stabilized zirconia with 6 mol% MgO and 4 mol% CaO is aged at 1450-degrees-C, intragranular precipitation occurs and concurrently the boundaries between the grains migrate, forming a Ca-enriched precipitate-free cubic phase and large tetragonal precipitates behind them. At these compositions and temperature the boundary migration is rapid and shows the characteristics of a discontinuous coarsening. A uniaxial compressive stress applied to this specimen during the aging treatment increases or decreases the migration rate of the boundaries parallel or perpendicular to the stress axis, respectively, in agreement with the prediction that a compressive coherency strain due to the diffusion of Ca atoms is produced at the surface of the retreating grains and drives the migration. The diffusional coherency strain energy is thus expected to be the dominant driving force for the discontinuous coarsening in this solid.
