This work was focused on glass–alumina functionally graded materials, produced via percolation of molten glass into a sintered polycrystalline alumina substrate and via plasma spraying. The glass composition, belonging to the CaO–ZrO2–SiO2 system, was purposely designed in order to minimize

Moreover, FGMs allow to fully exploit the peculiar properties of the ingredient materials, whilst the smooth change in composition and microstructure minimizes the stresses which can
