mol% yttria stabilized zirconia (YSZ) powder has been synthesized by the oleate complex route. Oleate complexes of zirconium and yttrium were formed in the hexane rich layer by the reaction of sodium oleate with zirconyl chloride and yttrium chloride at the interface of the two ternary solutions in water–ethanol–hexane system. The zirconyl oletae and yttrium oleate complexes on heating decomposed to oxide through the formation of carbonate intermediates. The powder obtained by calcination at 600
°C for 2
h was cubic YSZ with surface area of 42
m
2/g. The YSZ powder contained primary particles of ∼300
nm size and the primary particles were aggregate of crystallites of 5–10
nm. The compacts prepared from the YSZ powder were sintered to ∼99% TD (theoretical density) at 1400
°C. The sintered YSZ had a low average grain size of 0.73
