the structure and phase composition of zirconia-based nanosystems are studied. it is shown that during mechanical activation this nanosystem is divided into two subsystems with the average size of structural elements differing by two orders of magnitude. the fraction of the quasiamorphous (X-ray amorphous) phase therewith increases. through varying the heating rate of such a nanosystem in sintering we may purposefully vary its shrinkage at the stage of isothermal sintering. it is shown that through heating rate variation at sintering of such a nanosystem one can purposefully vary its shrinkage at the isothermal sintering stage. the higher the sintering temperature, the slower the compaction process at the isothermal stage. this allows producing materials with various porosity values but high strength of sintered material. keywords: ceramics, mechano-chemistry, nanostructure, nanocrystalline zro 2 , phase composition, sinteringProf. Sergey N. Kulkov Head of Department of ceramics in the institute of strength Physics and materials science of the russian Academy of science since 1989. He has got scientific degrees "candidate of Physics and mathematical sciences" at tomsk state university in 1981; and "Doctor of Physics and mathematical sciences" in 1990. since 1992 he's working as professor both in tomsk state university and in tomsk Polytechnic university. He has a wide range experiments in research of structural ceramic composites and in development of new material composition and technology of high-tech products. His research works are represented in 5 books, more than 150 articles, 18 patents and many international symposiums and conferences. in 1997 he had a soros Professor grant. At present he is head of chair "theory of strength and mechanic of solids", member of "the American ceramic society" of "the APmi-international" and the DymAt society (France). His scientific activities are the followings: ceramic matrix composites with transformation toughening, transformations and mechanical properties, shockwave treatment of ceramic powders, superplasticity of cmc, ceramic and ceramic reinforced metal fiber with high porosity for medical applications.Prof. Svetlana P.
