| Abstract: | The thermal expansion of WC from 20 to 900 K was measured in the a and c axial directions using high-resolution neutron powder diffraction. Third-order polynomials have been calculated from the expansion curves. The results complement and are compared with prior data in the 293 to 900 K region. |
