Abstract
The need for a correlation between the amount of a substance
added to a composite plastic material and its effect on the
cubical coefficient of thermal expansion, or cubit expansivity,
of the composite mixture is discussed, experimental values for
the cubic expansivities of several composite plastics made from
a thermoplastic resin, an inert salt filler, and various percentages
of aluminum are reported. Four hypothetical correlations
are tested, two of which are reported to give calculated
values within 1% of those observed. Apparatus and procedures
for obtaining these results are also described in detail.
