Under DevelopmentNegative Thermal Expansion Material ZrW2O8 for Thermal Stress relaxation
We are developing ZrW2O8 which is known as one of negative thermal expansion materials. This material is expected to help to improve reliability of heat-generating parts such as power devices or electronic devices used in environments subject to temperature variability by alleviating thermal stress
The features of ZrW2O8 are as follows.
- Thermal expansion of the base material can be controlled by creating composite materials with ZrW2O8.
- It can be mixed with both organic and inorganic substances.
- Negative thermal expansion occurs across a wide temperature range, making use of ZrW2O8 possible at high temperatures.
