Abstract

Lattice parameters of some different chromium-doped mullites obtained by a sol-gel route and sintered at 1650° C have been determined from X-Ray Diffraction data as a function of both temperature and Cr contents. Profile refinements on the X-ray diffraction diagrams have been carried out, showing that, at temperatures between 800° and 1535° C, an anisotropic thermal expansion takes place for the a and b lattice parameters of the Cr-doped mullite. We show that this anisotropic expansion is dependent on the temperature increase and the chromium content for the different compositions of the mullite crystals.
