Using high resolution neutron diffraction and capacitance dilatometry we show that the thermal evolution of the helimagnetic state in CoMnSi is accompanied by a change in interatomic distances of up to 2%, the largest ever found in a metallic magnet. Our results and the picture of competing exchange and strongly anisotropic thermal expansion that we use to understand them sheds light on a new m...

In this work we study the structural evolution of Al and Fe based metallic glass compositions. The samples were obtained as ribbons by melt-spinning, their glass stability and crystallization were analyzed by calorimetry and dilatometry, structural changes were followed by in-situ synchrotron X-ray diffraction during annealing throughout glass transition and crystallization. The synchrotron res...

The kinetics of densification during sintering are often analyzed by techniques such as the master curve and Wang–Raj analysis to determine activation energies. These methods, while versatile, do not always form a complete picture or isolate individual processes that occur sintering. This report develops rate peak method for determining energies analogous traditional Kissinger chemical reaction...

Abstract In recent decades, highly alloyed low-density steels are being developed to reduce the weight of different automotive parts. Dilatometry can be a very useful experimental technique understand phase transformations during heating or cooling new steel alloys. When performing dilatometry measurements some assumptions made such as homogeneity sample material tested experiment. this study, ...

Invited for this month's cover picture is the group of authors from The Electrochemical Innovation Lab at University College London and Faraday Institution. shows how electrochemical dilatometry can inform real world battery applications through study electrode expansion characterisation various chemistries.

In this study, the effect of processing parameters, i.e., the cooling rate and pressure, on the structureproperty relationships for nucleated and non-nucleated i-PP from virgin and recycled sources was investigated. Special attentionwas given to the brittle-to-ductile transition of nucleated i-PP from plastic packaging waste. Differential fast scanning calorimetry and dilatometry were used to m...
