Abstract

Glass-containing composites with interpenetrating, graded or layered microstructures as well as hybrid glass and glass-ceramic matrix composites are discussed. Aspects of their fabrication, microstructural characterisation, properties and applications are reviewed. These materials have advantages regarding ease of processing and/or special properties which can be achieved, in comparison with conventional dispersion-reinforced and fibre-reinforced glasses and glass-ceramics. The use of these materials in specific areas is expected to increase in the future, including structural, functional and biomedical applications.
