Abstract
ZrxHf1-xMgMo3O12 with xâ¯=â¯0.3, 0.5, 0.7 and 0.8 are developed with a simple solid state method. It is shown that ZrxHf1-xMgMo3O12 (xâ¯=â¯0-1)crystallizes in an orthorhombic symmetry with space group Pnma and exhibits zero-thermal expansion in a large temperature range, with the value of x (xâ¯=â¯0.5, αlâ¯=â¯â¯â0.363â¯Ãâ¯10â6â¯Kâ1 from 80â¯K to 573â¯K by X-ray diffraction and αlâ¯=â¯â¯â0.25â¯Ãâ¯10â6 Kâ1 from 273â¯K to 673â¯K by dilatometer). ZrxHf1-xMgMo3O12 with xâ¯=â¯0.5 remains the orthorhombic structure without phase transition or decomposition at least from 158â¯K to 673â¯K and is not hygroscopic. These properties make it an excellent material with near-zero thermal expansion for a variety of applications.
