Dilatometry - Thermal Expansion Testing - Lab( E13)
 

---

Dilatometry - Thermal Expansion Testing This is a push rod-style dilatometer. The sample carrier and push rod are alumina. The rod pushes against one side of a small bar of the material to be tested. The opposite end is held by an alumina stop. The sample sits within a tube furnace with a maximum temperature of 1600o C and is tested under flowing inert gas. The high precision measuring head is water-cooled. The sample can be placed in a vacuum or an inert gas.  The sample can be rectangular or cylindrical with a maximum diameter of 12 mm and a maximum length of 25 mm.
