Description
To the point
The Linseis DIL L75 PT Horizontal and the DIL L75 V are high-precision dilatometers for measuring thermal length changes in solids, liquids, powders and pastes.
The DIL L75 PT Horizontal offers a highly vacuum-tight design that enables measurements under vacuum as well as under oxidizing and reducing atmospheres.
The DIL L75 V is characterized by its frictionless “Zero Friction” design, which is particularly suitable for sintering studies and materials with extremely low expansion.
Both systems feature high-resolution inductive displacement transducers that ensure maximum accuracy, reproducibility and long-term stability.
Thanks to the comprehensive thermostatization and optional adaptations for use in a glovebox, they are versatile in use.
In addition, both models offer automatic pressure control, which allows the contact pressure to be infinitely varied depending on the application and keeps it constant throughout the measurement.
The following physical properties can be measured:
- CTE
- Linear thermal expansion
- Alpha Physical
- Sintering temperature
- Phase transformations
- Softening points
- Decomposition temperatures
- Glass transition temperatures
The cryogenic option of the DIL L75 V enables measurements at temperatures from -263°C to +220°C, offers various sample holders, vacuum operation and controlled atmospheres and ensures maximum accuracy and easy handling.

Applications
Application example: Glass ceramic
Dilatometry is an excellent method for determining the coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) and the softening point of glass-ceramics.
In addition to the absolute expansion, the relative expansion and the coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE), the first derivative of the absolute expansion can also be calculated against the temperature.
The O-passage of the differentiation is the maximum of the thermal expansion and therefore the softening point of the material can be calculated exactly.
Application example
The linear thermal expansion (ΔL) and the coefficient of thermal expansion CTE of a sample, measured in an argon atmosphere at a heating rate of 5 K / min, has its eutectic and Curie point at 736.3 °C.
The measured temperature peak of the expansion coefficient can be compared with the literature value and thus the calibration of the device can be checked.
