THE THERMAL EXPANSION OF BETA-SILICON CARBIDE AND SOME TUNGSTEN MOLYBDENUM ALLOYS

Abstract

Thermal expansion coefficients of some tungstenmolybdenum alloys were determined by X-ray diffraction methods over the temperature range 25 to 1200 C. Within experimental error the coefficients are independent of temperature over the range studied. Beta-silicon carbide was also investigated. Values of the mean expansion coefficient 0.00000594 are tabulated.
