In this paper, zirconium tungstate ceramic with negative thermal expansion coefficients was prepared from zirconium oxide and tungstic acid by solid phase synthesis and high temperature quenching technique with a sintering temperature of 1200 °C. The phase structure of the material was determined by X ray and the thermal expansion coefficient was measured by dilatometer, while the TG-DTA analysis of the prepared material was also carried out. The results showed that zirconium tungstate with high purity could be obtained by rapid chilled while fired at 1200 °C. The coefficient of thermal expansion at 300 °C was minus 8.5413 × 10-6K-1, which is identical with the theoretical value. The thermal expansion coefficient of the material was negative fired lower than 750 °C, while it was positive fired higher than 750 °C, and this indicates that the decomposition temperature of zirconium tungstate is about 750 °C.

Zirconium tungstate (ZrW2O8) is a unique ceramic material characterized by isotropic negative thermal expansion behavior over a wide temperature range. Incorporation of ZrW2O8 is expected to improve the dimensional stability of polymers by reducing the overall coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE). In this work, the thermal and dynamic mechanical properties of a bisphenol E cyanate ester reinforced with various loadings of ZrW2O8 are examined. Thermomechanical analysis indicates that the incorporation of ZrW2O8 results in a decrease in CTE at temperatures above and below the glass transition temperature (Tg) of the neat resin. The dynamic storage moduli of the composites reinforced with ZrW2O8 are found to increase with increasing filler loading. Furthermore, the various phase behaviors exhibited by ZrW2O8 are also examined by differential scanning calorimetry measurements.
