The high temperature X-ray diffraction study of the monoclinic tetragonal phase transition in ZrO2 showed that it is spread over a temperature range 930–1220°C. Anomalous intensity changes are observed in the pretransformation region 930–1100°C. Coexistence of phases through hybrid crystal formation in the region 1100–1220 °C and the mechanism of transition are discussed. The orientation relationship between the monoclinic (m) and the tetragonal (t) crystal structures consists in the parallelism of the (100)m plane to (110)t and of the bm axis to the ct axis. A drastic change in a small temperature range during the tetragonal–monoclinic transition is interpreted as a cooperative change in both short and long range interactions. The large thermal hysteresis is attributed to the difference in the mechanism of transition during heating and cooling.
