The crystallographic thermal expansion coefficients of Ti5Si3 from 20 to 1000 °C as a function of B, C, N, O, or Ge content were measured by high-temperature x-ray diffraction using synchrotron sources at Cornell University (Cornell High Energy Synchrotron Source; CHESS) and Argonne National Laboratory (Advanced Photon Source; APS). Whereas the ratio of the thermal expansion coefficients along the c and a axes was approximately 3 for pure Ti5Si3, this ratio decreased to about 2 when B, C, or N atoms were added. Additions of O and Ge were less efficient at reducing this thermal expansion anisotropy. The extent by which the thermal expansion was changed when B, C, N, or O atoms were added to Ti5Si3 correlated with their expected effect on bonding in Ti5Si3.

Intermetallic γ-TiAl-based alloys are lightweight materials for high-temperature applications, e.g., in the aerospace and automotive industries. They can replace much heavier Ni-based alloys at operating temperatures up to 750 °C. Advanced variants of this alloy class enable processing routes that include hot forming. These alloys consist of three relevant crystallographic phases (γ-TiAl, α2-Ti3Al, βo-TiAl) that transform into each other at different temperatures. For thermo-mechanical treatments as well as for adjusting alloy properties required under service conditions, the knowledge of the thermal expansion behavior of these phases is important. Therefore, thermal expansion coefficients were determined for the relevant phases in a Ti-Al-Nb-Mo alloy for temperatures up to 1100 °C using high-energy X-ray diffraction.

A new series of solid solutions Dy2-xGdxMo4O15 (x = 0.0-0.9) were prepared. These compounds all crystallize in monoclinic structure with space group P21/c. The lattice parameters a, b, c and unit cell volumes V increase almost linearly with increasing gadolinium content. The intrinsic thermal expansion coefficients of Dy2-xGdxMo4O15 (x = 0.0 and 0.25) were obtained in the temperature range of 25 to 500°C with high-temperature X-ray diffraction. The correlation between thermal expansion and crystal structure was discussed.

Variable-temperature high-resolution capillary-mode powder X-ray diffraction is used to assess changes in unit-cell dimensions as a function of temperature over the range 188–328 K. No evidence was found for any polymorphic transformations over this temperature range and thermal expansion coefficients for urea were found to be αa= (5.27 ± 0.26) × 10−5 K−1and αc= (1.14 ± 0.057) × 10−5 K−1.

Pure HPTB is triclinic, space group [Formula: see text] (No. 2), with a = 9.589(2) Å, b = 10.256(1) Å, c = 10.645(2) Å, α = 68.42(1)°, β = 76.92(2)°, γ = 65.52(1)°, and Z = 1. The CBr4 clathrate of HPTB is rhombohedral, space group [Formula: see text] (No. 148), with a = 14.327(4) Å, b = 20.666(8) Å, and Z = 3. The host–guest mole ratio of HPTB–CBr4 is 1:2. Neutron powder diffraction was carried out on powders of both compounds in the temperature range 25 K < T < 295 K. Thermal expansion coefficients were determined for HPTB and HPTB–CBr4 over this temperature range. Keywords: thermal expansion, crystal structure, clathrate.

Phase transformation of the Zr-1.0Sn-0.39Nb-0.31Fe-0.05Cr alloy was investigated by high temperature X-ray diffraction (XRD). The XRD results revealed that the alloy contained two precipitates at room temperature, namely β-Nb and hexagonal Zr(Nb,Fe,Cr,)2. β-Nb was suggested to dissolve into the α-Zr matrix at the 580oC. Thin oxide film formed at the alloy’s surface was identified as mixture of the monoclinic Zr0.93O2and tetragonal ZrO2, when the temperature reached to 750oC and 850 oC. The thermal expansion coefficients of αZr in this alloy was of αa = 8.39×10-6/°C, αc = 2.48×10-6/°C.

Time-resolved x-ray diffraction (TRXRD) was performed during Ti5Si3 synthesis by the self-propagating high-temperature synthesis mode for different Ti size fractions. It was determined that the time for product formation (ca. 15 s) was independent of Ti particle size. However, the formation of Ti5Si4 phase occurred when relatively large titanium particles were used. A simultaneous measurement of the temperature and TRXRD allowed us to attribute the shifting of XRD peaks at high temperature to thermal expansion of the Ti5Si3 product. The thermal expansion coefficients differ for different crystal planes, and their numerical values compare well with those reported previously in the literature.

Residual stresses in dental castings are widely held to be the cause of distortion and change of fit in ceramic bonded to metal dental restorations. Residual stresses are thought to result from the casting process and from ceramic/metal mismatch of thermal expansion coefficients. Such stresses have not been confirmed experimentally. The purpose of this study was to measure residual stress with x-ray diffraction at the various porcelain application steps for two noble dental alloys with two dental opaque porcelains.

The investigation of elemental composition, crystal structure and thermal behavior of vonsenite and hulsite from the Titovskoe boron deposit in Russia is reported. The structures of the borates are described in terms of cation-centered and oxocentred polyhedra. There are different sequences of double chains and layers consisting of oxocentred [OM 4] n + tetrahedra and [OM 5] n + tetragonal pyramids forming a framework. Elemental composition was determined by energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX). Oxidation states and coordination sites of iron and tin in the oxoborates are determined using Mössbauer spectroscopy and compared with EDX and X-ray diffraction data (XRD). According to results obtained from high-temperature Mössbauer spectroscopy, the Fe2+ to Fe3+ oxidation in vonsenite and hulsite occurs at approximately 500 and 600 K, respectively. According to the high-temperature XRD data, this process is accompanied by an assumed deformation of crystal structures and subsequent solid-phase decomposition to hematite and warwickite. It is seen as a monotonic decrease of volume thermal expansion coefficients with an increase in temperature. A partial magnetic ordering in hulsite is observed for the first time with T c ≃ 383 K. Near this temperature, an unusual change of thermal expansion coefficients is revealed. Vonsenite starts to melt at 1571 K and hulsite melts at 1504 K. Eigenvalues of thermal expansion tensor are calculated for the oxoborates as well as anisotropy of the expansion is described in comparison with their crystal structures.

The thermal expansion of 6H Silicon Carbide with different dopant concentrations of aluminum and nitrogen was determined by lattice parameter measurements at temperatures from 300 K to 1575 K. All samples have a volume of at least 6 x 6 x 6 mm3 to ensure that bulk properties are measured. The measurements were performed with a triple axis diffractometer with high energy x-rays with a photon energy of 60 keV. The values for the thermal expansion coefficients along the a- and c-direction, α11 and α33, are in the range of 3·10-6 K-1 for 300 K and 6·10-6 K-1 for 1550 K. At high temperatures the coefficients for aluminum doped samples are approximately 0.5·10-6 K-1 lower than for the nitrogen doped crystal. α11 and α33 appear to be isotropic.
