Al is an important industry material with large positive coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) while Zr2(WO4)(PO4)2(ZWP) is one of negative thermal expansion materials. Al–ZWP cermets/alloys with controllable coefficients of thermal expansion and impedance are successively synthesized without decomposition of ZWP. SEM imaging and elemental mapping show that the cermets comprise relatively uniform nanoparticles with sizes around 100nm and that the Al and ZWP in the cermets are homogeneously dispersed. The CTEs of the cermets can be well controlled from negative (−2.74×10−6K−1) to large positive (∼25.68×10−6K−1). The electric response of the cermets is studied and a capacitor- and/or resistor-like behavior are revealed, depending on the Al:ZWP mass ratio. The results may pave the way toward broad applications of Al–ZWP cermets/alloys in near-zero-strain Al alloy as construction materials and fine electrical components.
