Abstract
The synthesis of thermal-shock-resistant materials from the system Ta2O5WO3 was investigated. Ta2WO8 had a very low unit-cell thermal expansion coefficient (+0.5 X 10−6° C−1). Ta30W2O81 also had a relatively low coefficient (+4.0 X 10−6 ° C−1) and a thermal durability over 1600° C. The thermal expansion curves of these polycrystalline ceramics were lowered because of microcracks caused by the large thermal expansion anisotropy of the crystal axes and were accompanied by hysteresis loops. The densification of Ta2WO8 ceramic was promoted by the addition of some metal oxides, and the strong ceramic of Ta30W2O81 was obtained by controlling grain growth.
