Thermal Expansion of SrZr4-xTix(PO4)6 Ceramics

Article Preview

Abstract:

Low thermal expansion ceramics have been widely applied in multiple fields. In this paper, a series of low thermal expansion ceramics SrZr4-xTix(PO4)6 was prepared and characterized. The SrZr4-xTix(PO4)6 ceramics could be well sintered in the temperature range of 1400~1500 °C. The effect of the addition of Ti substituting Zr and the sintering temperature was studied. The Ceramic with x =0.1 sintered at 1450 °C, the SrZr4-xTix(PO4)6 had a high relative density. The thermal expansion coefficients were about 3.301×10-6 °C-1. It was demonstrated that the microstructure of the SrZr4-xTix(PO4)6 could be altered by adding varying amount of Ti to tailor the thermophysical properties of the material.
