Microstructure–mechanical properties of Ag 0 /Au 0 doped K–Mg–Al–Si–O–F glass-ceramics

In understanding the catalytic efficacy of silver (Ag 0 ) and gold (Au 0 ) nanoparticles (NPs) on glass-ceramic (GC) crystallization, the microstructure–machinability correlation of a SiO 2 –MgO–Al 2 O 3 –B 2 O 3 –K 2 O–MgF 2 system is studied.
