Finally, the combination of glass phase and alumina nanoparticles with zirconia particles in tetragonal phase allows to obtain high properties for nacre-like materials. It leads to the highest properties, similar to those of the two best compositions referenced in the literature, namely a nacre-like alumina using a glassy phase and alumina nanoparticles as mortar and a nacre-like alumina using aluminium borate as secondary phase , both prepared by a MASC (Magnetically Assisted Slip Casting) process.
