    Influence of zirconia sol-gel coatings on the fracture strength of brittle materials

    In this work, the effect of a sol-gel ZrO2–3 mol% Y2O3 thin film on the fracture properties of a variety of brittle substrates was investigated. The results suggest that the film does not have any appreciable inf...

    Effect of Sol-Gel Thin Coatings on the Fracture Strength of Glass

    The effect of ZrO2–3 mol/ Y2O3 sol-gel thin coatings on the fracture of soda-lime glass is investigated. For this purpose, a recently developed strength measurement procedure—based on making a brittle material fl...
