What is Low thermal expansion refractory composites based on CaAl4O7 about?

Following the previously reported elaboration of low thermal expansion refractory composites based on CaAl 4 O 7 , further compositions of this type are presented. They are principally based on combinations of CaAl 4 O 7 with MgAl 2 O 4 ; also, complementary data relating to those with CaZrO 3 are given. Specially adjusted bimodal particle size distributions were applied: granular fractions (0.09±0.5 mm) of the spinel and the zirconate embedded in ®ne (under 0.06) calcium dialuminate matrices. It could be shown that composites with up to more than 50% volume content of MgAl 2 O 4 and CaZrO 3 grains will retain the merit of low expansion coecients imposed by the matrix in spite of the much higher values of this property characteristic of both the granular constituents. A peculiar phenomenon of expansion even lower than that of CaAl 4 O 7 itself was observed, too. The rather complex relations between the thermal expansion and composition/microstructure features are discussed and some relevant de®nitions are proposed. The added two minerals contributing to the favourable behaviour of the composites as a whole are fully compatible at high temperatures with the dialuminate. Interpretati
