Thermal Expansion of a Uranium Monocarbide—Zirconium Monocarbide Solid Solution

The thermal expansion of a polycrystalline (U0.30, Zr0.70)C0.97 solid solution was determined between 25° and 982°C by means of a high-temperature x-ray diffraction technique. For the range 25° to 1000°C the average linear thermal-expansion coefficient is 7.78×10−6/°C. The 25°C lattice parameter is...

Description
Summary:The thermal expansion of a polycrystalline (U0.30, Zr0.70)C0.97 solid solution was determined between 25° and 982°C by means of a high-temperature x-ray diffraction technique. For the range 25° to 1000°C the average linear thermal-expansion coefficient is 7.78×10−6/°C. The 25°C lattice parameter is 4.7822 Å, the calculated density 8.94 g/cm3, and the diamond pyramid hardness 1800 kg/mm2.
