Abstract
Zirconia nanoparticles (10–50 nm) were infiltrated into commercial glasses to modify their mechanical properties. The process developed allows a homogeneous distribution of the nanoparticles within the glassy matrix. Differential thermal analysis, thermo-gravimetric analysis, X-ray diffraction, scanning and transmission electron microscopy and energy dispersive spectroscopy mapping analysis where utilized to characterize the resulting composites.
