Jianhong, Li Xiaohua, Bian Qian Abstract Negative thermal expansion
solid solutions Zr1-XLaXW2O8-X/2
(X=0.00-0.02) powders were synthesized using solid state reaction
with Zirconium dioxide, Lanthanum oxide and Tungsten trioxide as raw materials. The
structure and morphology of the resulting powders were characterized by powder X-ray
diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscope (SEM) respectively. The thermal
expansion coefficient of the samples were measured by dilatometer at room temperature to
700ºC. The results showed that samples were
single cubic phase. The average thermal expansion coefficients of ZrW2O8,
Zr0.99La0.01W2O7.995 and
Zr0.98La0.02W2O7.99 were -2.594×10-6K-1,-2.309×10-6K-1,and
-2.298×10-6K-1 in the temperature range from room temperature to
200ºC, -5.002×10-6K-1,-4.810×10-6K-1,
and -4.730×10-6K-1 from 200ºC to 700ºC respectively. The phase
transition temperature of the samples were between 150ºC to 220ºC. There were slightly decrease in the thermal expansion property
of the samples with the increase in substitution fraction X. 1. INTRODUCTION 2. EXPERIMETAL SECTION 3. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION 3.1 X-ray diffraction studies Fig 1 XRD patterns of powders Zr1-XLaXW2O8-X/2(X=0.00-0.02)at room temperature The XRD patterns of the Zr1-XLaXW2O8-X/2 with different La content at room temperature were presented in Fig. 1. It can be seen that all samples studies showed the similar XRD patterns. This was mainly because of the very limited content of La substituted for Zr. We indexed these XRD patterns using Powder X software with a cubic unit cell corresponding to the ZrW2O8 crystal structure with a space group P213. The lattice parameter was 0.915 nm at RT which was in good agreement with the results in precious studies, and on the other hand proved that Zr1-XLaXW2O8-X/2(X=0.00-0.02) solid solutions have been successfully synthesized. 3.2 SEM studies Scanning electron microscopic studies were performed on the fractured surface of Zr1-XLaXW2O8-X/2 (X=0.00-0.02), and presented in Fig. 2(a), 2(b), and 2(c), respectively. As seen from the micrograph, the samples consisted of small particles(about 10 mm). The bonded block of Zr1-XLaXW2O8-X/2 (X=0.02) was dense, and the average particle size was much larger compared to Zr1-XLaXW2O8-X/2(X=0.00-0.01), the last two specimens were of porosity. The degree of substitution by La3+ may influence the density of the composites.

It was seen from Fig.3, that all specimens showed negative thermal expansion curves regradless of substitution fraction X. The anomaly of the curve below 100ºC both in Fig.3 and Fig.4 mainly because of the density of sintering process. The average thermal expansion coefficients of Zr1-XLaXW2O8-X/2 series from X=0.00 to X=0.02 were -2.594×10-6K-1,-2.309×10-6K-1,and -2.298×10-6K-1 in the temperature range from room temperature to 200ºC, -5.002×10-6K-1,-4.810×10-6K-1, and -4.730×10-6K-1 from 200ºC to 700ºC respectively. The thermal expansion property slightly decreased as the La3+ substitution degree increased. The thermal expansion coefficient of Zr1-XLaXW2O8-X/2(X=0.00)was higher than the results reported in precious studies, the main reason was the synthesis method and the temperature range of measurement. It was also shown in Fig.4 that each expansion curve of the samples has a shift at the temperature range from 150ºC to 200ºC, which corresponded to the phase transition of space group from P213 to Pa3 reported by Evans et al[3]. The difference of phase transition temperature was suggested to be due to the difference of La3+ substitution degree. 4. CONCLUSION Cubic Zr1-XLaXW2O8-X/2 (X=0.00-0.02) sold solutions can be synthesized by solid state route. The thermal expansion behavior of the series have been studied by dilatometry. A difference in phase trasition temperature range and thermal expansion observed in Zr1-XLaXW2O8-X/2 specimens were attributed to the difference substitution degree of La3+.
