Dental glass-ceramics (DGCs) are developed by controlled crystallization of oxide glasses
and form an important group of biomaterials used in modern dentistry. They are also of great …

The global market for dental materials is predicted to exceed 10 billion dollars by 2020. The
main drivers for this growth are easing the workflow of dentists and increasing the comfort of …

An additive-free glass-ceramics was prepared entirely from municipal solid waste
incineration bottom ash (BA) and coal fly ash (CFA), which provided new sight for the …

Glass ceramics from modified molten blast furnace (BF) slag were prepared. The
crystallization behavior of the modified BF slag was characterized using differential thermal …

Bioglass 45S5 is widely known for its ability to regenerate bone. However, this glass cannot
be fully densified by viscous flow due to its very high tendency for crystallization. In this work …

This paper introduces the formation reactions and reaction mechanisms of a series of
potassium niobates from a potassium salt of the Lindquist hexaniobate [Nb6O19] 8− ion …

The purpose of this research is to discuss the preparation, characterization, and
characteristics of lithium disilicate-fluorcanasite (LF) glass-ceramics in order to develop new …

Background: There are many different ceramic systems available on the market for dental
restorations. Glass-ceramics are a popular choice due to their excellent esthetics and ability …

The present work aims to investigate the role of CeO 2 (cerium oxide) on crystallization
behavior, microstructural features as well as mechanical and chemical properties of canasite …
