For the smaller substitution content (x \u2264 0.5), their crystal structures remain orthorhombic, while there is crystal water still in the lattice. The linear coefficients of thermal expansions (CTEs), for x = 0.1, 0.3, 0.5, and 0.7, are about \u22124.30 \u00d7 10\u22126, \u22120.97 \u00d7 10\u22126, 0.85 \u00d7 10\u22126, and 0.77 \u00d7 10\u22126 K\u22121, respectively, from 476 to 773 K, which means that the linear CTE could be changed linearly with the substitution content of Zr4+\/V5+ for Y3+\/Mo6+ in Y2Mo3O12. As long as the substitution content reaches x = 1.3\/1.4, almost no hygroscopicity and low thermal expansion from room temperature are obtained and are discussed in relation to the crystal structure and microstructure.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/ma12233945","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,11,28]],"date-time":"2019-11-28T10:54:10Z","timestamp":1574938450000},"page":"3945","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Substitutions of Zr4+\/V5+ for Y3+\/Mo6+ in Y2Mo3O12 for Less Hygroscopicity and Low Thermal Expansion Properties"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"12","author":[{"given":"Qiang","family":"Ma","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Collage of Electric Power, North China University of Water Resources and Electric Power, Zhengzhou 450011, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Lulu","family":"Chen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Collage of Electric Power, North China University of Water Resources and Electric Power, Zhengzhou 450011, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Heng","family":"Qi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Collage of Electric Power, North China University of Water Resources and Electric Power, Zhengzhou 450011, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Qi","family":"Xu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Collage of Electric Power, North China University of Water Resources and Electric Power, Zhengzhou 450011, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Baohe","family":"Yuan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Collage of Electric Power, North China University of Water Resources and Electric Power, Zhengzhou 450011, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Xiansheng","family":"Liu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Henan Key Laboratory of Photovoltaic Materials and Low Dimensional Materials Science Laboratory, Henan University, Kaifeng 475004, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Lei","family":"Xu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Collage of Electric Power, North China University of Water Resources and Electric Power, Zhengzhou 450011, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2019,11,28]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"2458","DOI":"10.1038\/srep02458","article-title":"Effectively control negative thermal expansion of single-phase ferroelecrics of PbTiO3-(Bi,La)FeO3 over a giant range","volume":"3","author":"Chen","year":"2013","journal-title":"Sci.
