Abstract
Zero thermal expansion and creep resistance are indispensable for precision instruments; however, they are usually overlooked. This work utilized ZrW2O8 to incorporate SiO2 nanoparticles into the crystal during hydrothermal assembly to form a sandwich structure. The sandwich structure ZrW2O8-SiO2 composites with SiO2-nanocore achieved zero thermal expansion (α¯ = −0.008 × 10−6 °C−1 [30–300 °C]) by cold sintering (190 °C, 350 MPa). Simultaneously, the composites exhibited creep resistance via densification research. Furthermore, the composites displayed better electromagnetic wave transparency in the frequency range of 2–18 GHz than pure SiO2 ceramics. This approach can effectively solve the thermal expansion and creep problems of wave-transparent materials and provide a feasible method for the material fabrication.
