Composite ceramic materials based on SiO2–Al2O3–ZrO2 nanopowders were obtained by sintering and their properties were studied. Before sintering, the powders were subjected to mechanical activation in a planetary ball mill using zirconium dioxide balls as grinding bodies. The activated powders were pressed under pressing pressures of 50, 100, 200 and 300 MPa. Consolidation was carried out in an atmospheric high-temperature furnace at 1700 ?. The surface of the sintered bulk samples was examined using a scanning electron microscope. Elemental analysis made it possible to establish patterns in the distribution of chemical elements. It was found that in all the studied samples two phases were formed – Al6Si2O13 and ZrSiO4. The porosity of the samples was determined and the dependence of this parameter on the applied pressing pressure was established. The mechanical properties of the samples were studied using nanoindentation: indentation hardness and elastic modulus, and the bending strength limits of the studied samples were determined during Scratch testing. The crack resistance of the samples was determined by the indentation method using the Marshall-Evans relationship. The effect of the ratio of the initial components and the applied pressing pressure on the physical and mechanical properties of the resulting composite ceramics was determined.
