Recently, a research group led by Prof. Peng Tong from Hefei Institutes of Physical Science (HFIPS), Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), significantly improved the negative thermal expansion (NTE) effect of Cu2P2O7, a new but excellent NTE material, and prepared a zero thermal expansion (ZTE) Cu2P2O7/2024Al composite with high specific thermal conductivity and good machinability.
