Sol-gel processing: A versatile concept for special glasses and ceramics

  • Published:
Bulletin of Materials Science Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Abstract

The various parameters related to sol-gel processing are discussed with special reference to those which usually attract less attention but depending on the final product in mind, can play important roles. The versatility of the sol-gel technique in materials preparation is demonstrated by discussing the various products developed at the author’s laboratory by using this processing method.
