ABSTRACT
Zr2MoP2O12/ZrO2 composites were successfully synthesized by the solid state method in attempt to fabricate the near-zero thermal expansion ceramics. The phase composition, micromorphology and thermal expansion behavior of the Zr2MoP2O12/ZrO2 composites with different mass ratios were investigated using X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and thermal mechanical analysis. Results indicate that Zr2MoP2O12/ZrO2 composites can be prepared by pre-sintering at 500°C for 3 h and then sintering at 1050°C for 6 h. The resulting Zr2MoP2O12/ZrO2 composites consisted of orthorhombic Zr2MoP2O12 and monoclinic ZrO2. With increasing content of Zr2MoP2O12, the Zr2MoP2O12/ZrO2 ceramics became more compact and the coefficient of thermal expansion decreased gradually. Zr2MoP2O12/ZrO2 composites show an adjustable coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) from 5.57 × 10-6 K-1 to -5.73 × 10-6 K-1 by changing the mass ratio of Zr2MoP2O12 and ZrO2. The Zr2MoP2O12/ZrO2 composite with a mass ratio of 21 showed near zero thermal expansion, and the average linear thermal expansion coefficient is measured to be 0.0065 × 10-6 K-1 in the temperature range from 25 to 700°C.
