Abstract
Glass and glass-ceramic matrix composites with dispersion reinforcement, namely those containing whisker, platelet, chopped fibres or particles, are considered in this Chapter, reviewing their fabrication, microstructural characterisation, properties and applications. The Chapter is mainly devoted to composite systems developed to improve the thermomechanical properties of the glass (or glass-ceramic) matrix, in order to fabricate novel materials suitable for structural and load-bearing applications. The use of the composites in mechanical engineering and machinery, electronics, aerospace, chemical, high-temperature and wear resistance applications as well as in the biomedical field and in industrial recycling technologies is discussed.
