The fabrication of Al2O3-PSZ-Fe-Ni functionally graded pipes has been investigated by slurry coating and pressureless sintering process. Each slurry of Al2O3-PSZ-Fe-Ni mixture and Fe-Ni was coated in order on the Al2O3-PSZ pipes formed by slip casting or planetary slip casting with those slurries. The laminar green pipes were sintered in vacuum at 1350degreesC. The structure of pipes fabricated by this method was microscopically examined and the graded distribution was examined by an X-ray line analysis of Al and Fe. The pipes with 2 layers of Al2O3-PSZ and Fe-Ni had crevices in those bonding interface. Some functionally graded pipes with 3 layers or multiplayer were free from cracks and warps, and had the bonding interfaces bonded completely each other. These pipes had the graded distribution without smoothness of Al and Fe in the middle layers. These functionally graded pipes with 3 layers had better resistance to thermal shock than that of ceramics alone pipes.
