¹ - There are low-melting point fusible alloys containing bismuth. iridium and the like that expand when they solidify--or shrink at frst then grow sometime  after.
I have worked with this stuff quite a bit and it is dimensionally stable - zero shrink when it cures - so I was surprised that these polymers grow. Typical materials shrink or stay stable, except things affected by humidity so this is a bit of a paradigm shift for me.
