Negative Thermal Expansion
نویسندگان
چکیده
Introduction Many materials which we encounter in everyday life expand on heating. This fact of life is easily highlighted with a simple experiment that we are all familiar with and involves a metallic sphere passing through a metal ring. At room temperature, the sphere is of such a size that it can easily pass through the ring, but after the sphere is heated, it will have expanded with the result that it can no longer pass through the ring.

Effectively control negative thermal expansion of single-phase ferroelectrics of PbTiO3-(Bi,La)FeO3 over a giant range
Control of negative thermal expansion is a fundamentally interesting topic in the negative thermal expansion materials in order for the future applications. However, it is a challenge to control the negative thermal expansion in individual pure materials over a large scale. Here, we report an effective way to control the coefficient of thermal expansion from a giant negative to a near zero ther...
متن کاملTunable thermal expansion in framework materials through redox intercalation
Thermal expansion properties of solids are of fundamental interest and control of thermal expansion is important for practical applications but can be difficult to achieve. Many framework-type materials show negative thermal expansion when internal cages are empty but positive thermal expansion when additional atoms or molecules fill internal voids present. Here we show that redox intercalation...
متن کاملNegative thermal expansion materials: technological key for control of thermal expansion.
Most materials expand upon heating. However, although rare, some materials contract upon heating. Such negative thermal expansion (NTE) materials have enormous industrial merit because they can control the thermal expansion of materials. Recent progress in materials research enables us to obtain materials exhibiting negative coefficients of linear thermal expansion over -30 ppm K-1. Such giant ...
متن کاملRelationships between elastic anisotropy and thermal expansion in A2Mo3O12 materials.
We report calculated elastic tensors, axial Grüneisen parameters, and thermal stress distributions in Al2Mo3O12, ZrMgMo3O12, Sc2Mo3O12, and Y2Mo3O12, a series of isomorphic materials for which the coefficients of thermal expansion range from low-positive to negative. Thermal stress in polycrystalline materials arises from interactions between thermal expansion and mechanical properties, and bot...
متن کاملSynthesis and thermal expansion properties of ZrO2/ZrW2O8 composites
In this work, a ceramic composite of ZrW2O8 and ZrO2 was synthesized, in order to investigate the possibility of compensating the positive thermal expansion of ZrO2 with the negative thermal expansion (NTE) compound ZrW2O8, tailoring the thermal expansion of these composites. The NTE material was mixed with varying amounts of ZrO2. The thermal expansion coefficients of this series of composites...
متن کاملOrigin of the Exceptional Negative Thermal Expansion in Metal-Organic Framework-5 Zn4O(1,4-benzenedicarboxylate)3
Metal organic framework-5 (MOF-5)was recently suggested to possess an exceptionally large negative thermal-expansion coefficient. Our direct experimental measurement of the thermal expansion of MOF-5 using neutron powder diffraction, in the temperature range of 4 to 600 K, shows that the linear thermalexpansion coefficient is ≈−16×10−6 K−1. To understand the origin of this large negative therma...
