Preparation of CaO-SiO2 Glass-Ceramic Spheres by Electrospraying Combined with Sol-Gel Method

CaO-SiO2 glass-ceramic spheres were prepared by an electrospray method using hydrolyzed silicon alkoxide containing calcium nitrate. Crystalline calcium silicates, such as Ca2SiO4 and β-CaSiO3, formed around the surface of the spheres after heat treatment. The dissolution of the crystal phase of the...
