<p>New phosphates MNi<sub>0.5</sub>Zr<sub>1.5</sub>(PO<sub>4</sub>)<sub>3</sub> (M = Mg, Ca, Sr) were prepared by the precipitating method.<strong><em> </em></strong>Phosphates were characterized using X-ray powder diffraction, IR-spectroscopy and electron microprobe analyses. The crystal structure of phosphates was refined by the Rietveld method. Phosphates CaNi<sub>0.5</sub>Zr<sub>1.5</sub>(PO<sub>4</sub>)<sub>3</sub> and SrNi<sub>0.5</sub>Zr<sub>1.5</sub>(PO<sub>4</sub>)<sub>3</sub> are shown to have been crystallized in the NaZr<sub>2</sub>(PO<sub>4</sub>)<sub>3</sub>-type structure and the phosphate MgNi<sub>0.5</sub>Zr<sub>1.5</sub>(PO<sub>4</sub>)<sub>3 </sub>was obtained as a single-phase with Sc<sub>2</sub>(WO<sub>4</sub>)<sub>3</sub>-type structure. Heat capacity of phosphate CaNi<sub>0.5</sub>Zr<sub>1.5</sub>(PO<sub>4</sub>)<sub>3</sub> was measured in the range 7 – 650 K and increased monotonically over the entire temperature range studied. Thermal expansion of phosphate CaNi<sub>0.5</sub>Zr<sub>1.5</sub>(PO<sub>4</sub>)<sub>3</sub> was studied in the interval 295-1073 K by the high temperature X-ray diffraction. This phosphate is similar to the best low-expansion ceramics, such as zircon, cordierite and silica glass in thermal expansion behavior.</p>

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.

Thermal expansion of (Sr1−x , K2x )Zr4(PO4)6 (SrKZP) (with x = 0–1) ceramic was investigated using both a dilatometer and a high-temperature X-ray diffractometer. The coefficients of thermal expansion (CTEs) of the SrKZP ceramic measured by the dilatometer demonstrate a similar trend as those from high-temperature X-ray diffraction. Both measurements show an ultra-low CTE at x = 0.5; nevertheless, this composition shows significant lattice thermal-expansion anisotropy (TEA), while the minimum TEA appears with composition x = 0.2. Although it possessed a sufficient degree of TEA, the x = 0.5 composition showed no visible microcracks or negligible microcracks over a grain size as large as 15 μm. A transition of space group from R{\bar 3} to R{\bar 3}c with composition between x = 0.3 and x = 0.5 has been observed. The crystal structure of the SrKZP ceramic with possible occupations of strontium and/or potassium within the lattice in relation to their influence on the CTEs is proposed.

The crystal structure of new Tb3CuAl3Ge2 quaternary compound was studied by the Rietveld method from powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) data. The Tb3CuAl3Ge2 compound crystallized in the hexagonal Y3NiAl3Ge2-type structure with space group P-62m (no. 189) and lattice parameters a = 7.0041(2) Å, c = 4.1775(1) Å, V = 177.48 Å3. There is only one formula in each unit cell, Z = 1, and the density of Tb3CuAl3Ge2 is ρx = 7.1696 g cm−3. The reliability factors characterizing the Rietveld refinement results are Rp = 6.43%, Rwp = 8.65%, RB = 4.81%, and RF = 4.09%, respectively. The powder XRD data of Tb3CuAl3Ge2 were presented and the reliability of indexation is F30 = 120.9(0.0073, 34).

New compounds of the composition Na5Rb7Sc2(XO4)9 (X = Mo, W) were obtained via the ceramic technology. The sequences of chemical transformations occurring during the formation of these compounds were established, and their primary characterization was performed. Both Na5Rb7Sc2(XO4)9 (X = Mo, W) were found to melt incongruently at 857 K (X = Mo) and 889 K (X = W). They are isostructural to Ag5Rb7Sc2(XO4)9 (X = Mo, W), Na5Cs7Ln2(MoO4)9 (Ln = Tm, Yb, Lu) and crystallize in the trigonal crystal system (sp. gr. R32). The crystal structures were refined with the Rietveld method using the powder X-ray diffraction data. The thermal expansion of Na5Rb7Sc2(WO4)9 was studied by high-temperature powder X-ray diffraction; it was shown that this triple tungstate belongs to high thermal expansion materials.

Abstract The low-temperature polymorph β-Ca11B2Si4O22 crystallizes as a monoclinic structure [space group is P21/c, a=14.059(9), b=6.834(5), c=10.597(7) Å, β=100.735(8)°]. The crystal investigated by single-crystal X-ray diffraction was a twin composed of six individuals. The crystal structure is similar to that of mineral spurrite, Ca5(SiO4)2CO3, and can be described as a framework of [CaO5] and [CaO6] polyhedra, the cavities of which are filled with [SiO4] and [BO3] groups. The orientation relationship of twin domains was investigated by electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD). Thermal expansion was studied by high-temperature X-ray powder diffraction. It is slightly anisotropic: α11=10, α22=16, α33=12×10−6°C−1 at 200°C.

A crystallographic study of the system Ni2+ 1−2x Ni3+ x Li+ x O has been carried out. The crystal structure of the material in the range 0≤x≤0.4 at room temperature and up to 1000°C has been studied. The principal coefficients of thermal expansion and the phase diagram are given. The structural rhombohedral → face-centred cubic transition temperature of NiO has been determined.
