Carbon fiber–reinforced polyether ether ketone (PEEK) is a strong candidate for aerospace bearing cages due to its low density and good mechanical properties. However, there are still concerns regarding its performance at the elevated temperatures seen in aerospace applications. In particular, an accurate measurement of PEEK's coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) is critical to proper bearing design. In this paper, the CTE of as-manufactured PEEK cages was measured to determine the range of CTE that can be expected for production parts. A range of cage sizes and designs were considered in this study. Components that were manufactured from stock shapes through subtractive methods were studied in addition to components made via injection molding. The CTE of machined PEEK was found to be significantly higher than that of injection-molded PEEK and also varied significantly from part to part. In contrast, the CTE of molded PEEK cages was found to be fairly consistent between parts. Finally, the CTE of PEEK was found to increase above the glass transition temperature of 143 °C, but it was demonstrated that this increase is relatively small for injection-molded parts.

Battery separators are thin, porous membrane of 20∼30 microns thickness. Polymer separators display a significant amount of shrinkage at elevated temperatures. It is difficult to quantitatively characterize the large shrinkage behavior with a free standing separator sample. This paper examines the use of a dynamic mechanical analyzer under tensile mode in measuring the coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) of three commonly used separators.

Plutonium–americium mixed oxides, Pu1−yAmyO2−x, with various Am contents (y= 0.018, 0.077, 0.21, 0.49, 0.80 and 1.00) were studiedin situby high-temperature X-ray diffraction. In this study, the lattice thermal expansion of the six compounds subjected to heat treatments up to 1773 K under reconstituted air (N2+ 21% O2+ ∼5 vpm H2O) was investigated. The materials remained monophasic throughout the experiments and, depending upon the americium content, the lattice parameter of the face-centred cubic phase deviated from linear lattice expansion at elevated temperatures as a result of the progressive reduction of Am4+to Am3+.

The Debye–Scherrer pattern of the alloy Ni80Zr20 clearly shows the presence of a nickel solid-solution phase along with a new intermetallic phase Ni23Zr6, which seems to be isostructural with the Co23Zr6 phase. The thermal expansion coefficient of the Ni23Zr6 phase has been investigated in the temperature range 1003–1493 K. Linear variation of lattice parameter with temperature has been observed. The thermal expansion coefficient remains almost constant throughout this temperature interval.

AbstractIn this study, the effects of aggregate type on the coefficient of thermal expansion of self-consolidating concrete (SCC) produced with normal and lightweight (porous) aggregate (SCLC) were investigated. In experiments, three aggregate types, gravel, volcanic tuff, and diatomite, were used. Different combinations of water/cement ratio and superplasticizer dosage levels were prepared for the SCC and SCLC mixtures. Thermal tests were performed to accurately characterize the coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) of SCC and SCLC aged 28 days using the dilatometer. The CTEs of SCC and SCLC were defined by measuring the linear change in length of concrete specimens subjected to a range of temperatures from 20°C to 1000°C. The results, in general, showed that SCLC has a lower CTE than that of SCC above 100°C. Moreover, CTE values of SCC and SCLC were decreased with increase in porous structure. The aggregate type has significant influence on the thermal properties of SCC.

A simple theoretical model is developed to study the effect of size and temperature on the coefficient of thermal expansion and lattice parameter of nanomaterials. We have studied the size dependence of thermal expansion coefficient of Pb , Ag and Zn in different shape viz. spherical, nanowire and nanofilm. A good agreement between theory and available experimental data confirmed the model predictions. We have used these results to study the temperature dependence of lattice parameter for different size and also included the results of bulk materials. The temperature dependence of lattice parameter of Zn nanowire and Ag nanowire are found to present a good agreement with the experimental data. We have also computed the temperature and size dependence of lattice parameter of Se and Pb for different shape viz. spherical, nanowire and nanofilm. The results are discussed in the light of recent research on nanomaterials.

ABSTRACTX-ray strain analysis via Generalized Focusing Diffractometry (GFD) [1], and the concurrent need for accurate values of the unstrained lattice parameter, are discussed. A new method for determining the unstrained lattice parameter without knowledge of the elastic constants of the sample material is described. Stress measurements at varying temperatures, and extraction of the coefficient of thermal expansion from these measurements, are demonstrated for aluminum and gold films.

In the current work, a series of black polyimide (PI) films with excellent thermal and dimensional stability at elevated temperatures were successfully developed. For this purpose, two aromatic diamines including 4,4′-iminodianline (NDA) and 2-(4-aminophenyl)-5- aminobenzimidazole (APBI) were copolymerized with pyromellitic dianhydride (PMDA) to afford PIs containing imino groups (–NH–) in the molecular structures. The referenced PI film, PI-ref, was simultaneously prepared from PMDA and 4,4′-oxydianiline (ODA). The introduction of imino groups endowed the PI films with excellent blackness and opaqueness with the optical transmittance lower than 2% at the wavelength of 600 nm at a thickness of 25 μm and lightness (L*) below 10 for the CIE (Commission International Eclairage) Lab optical parameters. Meanwhile, the introduction of rigid benzimidazole units apparently improved the thermal and dimensional stability of the PI films. The PI-d film based on PMDA and mixed diamines (NDA:APBI = 70:30, molar ratio) showed a glass transition temperature (Tg) of 445.5 °C and a coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) of 8.9 × 10−6/K in the temperature range of 50 to 250 °C, respectively. It is obviously superior to those of the PI-a (PMDA-NDA, Tg = 431.6 °C; CTE = 18.8 × 10−6/K) and PI-ref (PMDA-ODA, Tg = 418.8 °C; CTE: 29.5 × 10−6/K) films.
