Abstract: Provided are a dispersion of a nanoparticulate mixed oxide of SiO2 with at least one further metal oxide in a matrix monomer, methods for preparing such a dispersion, a dental composite producible by curing such a dispersion, and uses of the dispersion as a precursor for dental composites.

Abstract: The amorphous and/or partially crystalline glass solders are particularly suitable for high-temperature applications, e.g. in fuel cells or sensors in the exhaust gas stream of internal combustion engines. The glass solder is characterized by a linear coefficient of thermal expansion in the temperature range from 20° C. to 300° C. of 8.0×10?6 K?1 to 11.0×10?6 K?1 and a hemisphere temperature of 820° C. to 1100° C. and is suitable for laser bonding.

Abstract: A crystallizing glass solder for high-temperature applications, which is free of PbO and contains, in % by weight on an oxide basis: 45% to 60% of BaO; 25% to 40% of SiO2; 5% to 15% of B2O3; 0 to <2% of Al2O3; 2 to 7.0, preferably 4.4 to 7.0%, of MgO; and at least one alkaline earth metal oxide from the group consisting of MgO, CaO and SrO, wherein CaO is 0% to 5% and the sum of the alkaline earth metal oxides MgO, CaO and SrO is 2% to 15%. Preferred embodiments of the glass solder contain from 3 to 15 wt. % of Y2O3 and have low porosity and high stability with respect to a moist fuel gas environment.
