With just one measurement, the Hot Disk TPS technique can quickly and easily estimate the material's thermal diffusivity and thermal conductivity. It also gives the user a volumetric heat capacity ...

Cellulose is by far the most common biopolymer on the planet, and it is well known for its renewable, biocompatible, and biodegradable nature. Cellulose is a type of linear polysaccharide (β (1−4) ...

New research from the Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National Laboratory, in collaboration with The Ohio State University ...

A UCLA-led research team has identified a metallic material with the highest thermal conductivity yet measured in a metal, challenging established limits on heat transport in metallic materials. A ...

QUT researchers have identified why some materials can block heat more effectively, which is a key feature for energy conversion, insulation and gas storage.
