Toughening effects quantification in glass matrix composite reinforced by alumina platelets

Residual stress effect on the fracture toughness of lithium disilicate glass‐ceramics

“…The change in toughness is a function of the magnitude of the residual stress and the distance between the precipitates. This model has been tested experimentally . The toughness of glass samples with different concentrations of alumina was measured at room temperature and 500°C.…”

Internal residual stresses in glass-ceramics: A review

“…Therefore, an understanding of the thermal residual stresses in glass-ceramics and their relationships with the microstructure and overall mechanical properties of the materials is important. The thermal residual stresses may have a significant impact on a material's mechanical performance including its strength [8][9][10][11] and stresses in composites [12][13][14], dental glassceramics [15][16][17][18] and components of fuel cells [19,20], among other applications.…”

Effect of nano-TiO 2 and nano-SiO 2 addition on the morphological control of α-Al 2 O 3 platelets via solid-state reaction

“…These platelets are used in porous ceramics [1,2], reinforcements for ceramics [3][4][5][6][7][8] or polymers [9][10][11], for thermal conductivity improvements [12], and in pigments [13] and catalytic supports [14,15]. The morphology of these materials influences their performance in various applications.…”
