Abstract

A new method for the collection and analysis of high temperature Guinier x-ray data has been devised at The Dow Chemical Co. This technique can be used to monitor various types of structural transformation and thermal expansions up to 900°C. The thermal expansions of α-Al2O3 and two TiO2 structures, anatase and rutile, have been characterized for their use as high temperature internal standards.
