CTE - See Charts below

Samples were measured on a Netzsch Model 402C Dilatometer. Up-heat rate was 10°K/min. in argon atmosphere. The figures show that both POCO Thermal Management Materials expand differently in the growth (z-axis) compared to the plane of the billet (xy plane). The charts show Expansivity data, which gives an accurate representation of the material expansion behavior over temperature range. The table of CTE values is taken as the slope of the expansivity curves between the temperature of interest and the reference temperature (30°C).
