Compared to prior studies on such material mixtures, additional Zr-containing secondary phases were detected, which had not been taken into consideration in a previously published work. Here, these phases were successfully identified for the first time by a combination of X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, and microstructural analysis.
