The (NZP) ceramics, sodium zirconium phosphate and its crystal structure analogs, are noted for their very low thermal expansion characteristics. What has not been widely studied in the effect of thermal cycling on physical and mechanical properties. Two (NZP) compositional series were selected (Ba{sub 1+x}Zr{sub 4}P{sub 6-2x}Si{sub 2x}O{sub 24} and Ca{sub 1-x}Sr{sub x}Zr{sub 4}P{sub 6}O{sub 24}) that exhibit varying bulk thermal expansion from positive to negative and varying degrees of thermal expansion anisotropy. The effect of thermal cycling, to 1250{degrees}C, on the bulk thermal expansion and flexural strength of these ceramics will be discussed in relationship to changes in density, thermal expansion anisotropy and microstructure.
