ZrCl 4 and Y(NO 3) 3.6H 2O were used as precursors. Chitosan was used as an organic polymer gelling agent. Chitosan has the advantages of being non-toxic, low-cost, biodegradable, and compatible for biomaterials application. Variation of precursor concentrations will affect particle size. The lower precursor concentration gives a smaller particle size of zirconia. X-ray diffraction (XRD) was used to characterize the crystal structure of zirconia. Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) was used to measure the particle size, the homogeneity and the morphology of particles. When chitosan was added to the precursor, the particle size obtained is 56 – 64 nm. In contrast, without the addition of chitosan, the particle size is 63 – 78 nm. Both samples used 0.1 M ZrCl 4 as a precursor. The result showed that the addition of chitosan would affect the particle size of zirconia.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Author keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]Biomaterials applications,Bridge applications,Gelling agents,Precursor concentration,Transmission electron microscopy tem,Yttrium stabilized zirconia[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Indexed keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]Chitosan,Composite,Dental Bridge,Nanoparticle,Sol-Gel,Yttrium Stabilized Zirconia[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Funding details” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”DOI” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_column_text]Widget Plumx[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
