A thermodynamic reason for this process is because of a decrease in the components’ solubilities together with an increase of structure’s dimension. As a particular example of such type of behavior, we investigate core-shell nanoparticle formation in the ZrO2–Y2O3–H2O system.</p></abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>core-shell nanoparticles</kwd><kwd>hydrothermal synthesis</kwd><kwd>multi-component systems</kwd><kwd>solid solution</kwd><kwd>zirconia</kwd><kwd>formation mechanism</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group><funding-statement xml:lang="en">The research was supported by Russian Science Foundation grant 16-13-10252.</funding-statement></funding-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Chatterjee K., Sarkar S., Rao K.J., Paria S.
