In addition to the aforementioned interactions with the surrounding gas environments, metallic interconnects also interact with adjacent components at their interfaces, potentially causing degradation of metallic interconnects and affecting the stability of the interfaces. One typical example is the rigid glass-ceramic seals, in particular those made from barium-calcium-aluminosilicate (BCAS) base glasses [205-209], FSS interconnect candidates have been shown to react extensively with...

In the 5 years that followed (1965-70), three additional producers—American Potash, National Lead, and Pittsburgh Plate Glass—opened chloride-process plants. Sales of composite titanium calcium-base pigments continued to drop, as they had done over the previous 5 years in which Du Pont had ceased to produce them. This was due primarily to their adverse effect upon the stability of latex systems and the rapid replacement of alkyd and oleoresinous flat wall paints by flat latex paints. Two so-called "maximum-durability" pigments were introduced during this period—one by Du Pont and the other by National Lead. These pigments, although produced by different methods, both essentially eliminated the photochemical reactivity of the base titanium dioxide. 

Glass-ceramics are also used for dental prosthetics. These materials are primarily based on either lithium disilicate or calcium phosphate glasses. Machinable glass-ceramics based on fluoromica phases have also been developed for machined inlays. All of these materials must be stained to match the surrounding teeth to be acceptable to the patient. 

The only ones that have so far found practical application in glass-ionomers for dentistry are alumino-silicate glasses, with fluoride and phosphate additions. These are typically calcium based, with some extra sodium, though successful commercial materials exist in which calcium has been wholly or partly replaced by strontium.

Glass-ceramics, having ferrimagnetic properties, were developed by Le Bras (1976). The magnetic property was achieved on the basis of the precipitation of calcium ferrite in glasses. Therefore, iron oxides were incorporated into silicate glasses. The base glass was characterized by the composition in ...
