Dense glass matrix particulate composites containing 2 %V of magnetic Fe3O4 particles, 70 nm size in average, were synthesized by means of Spark Plasma Sintering (SPS). We show in this study that a temperature as high as 330°C can be induced in the composite by applying an alternating magnetic field for a few minutes. This finding opens new possibilities for crack-healing and health recovery in damaged glassy materials. The elaboration, the magnetic, and the mechanical properties of this novel functional glass-based composite are presented.
