Synthesis and characterization of zirconia-calcia nanocomposite for dental application

This study was designed to examine zirconia stabilized by nano calcium oxide (CSZ) synthesized using sol-gel method as for potential material for dental implant, dental crown and bridgework substructures. Some parameters such as medium of reaction, concentrations of organic additive, and concentr...
