Historical Standard: ASTM E1952-06 Standard Test Method for Thermal Conductivity and Thermal Diffusivity by Modulated Temperature Differential Scanning Calorimetry
SUPERSEDED (see Active link, below)
ASTM E1952
1. Scope
1.1 This test method describes the determination of thermal determination of thermal conductivity of homogeneous, non-porous solid materials in the range of 0.10 to 1.0 W/(K m) by modulated temperature differential scanning calorimeter. This range includes many polymeric, glass, and ceramic materials. Thermal diffusivity, which is related to thermal conductivity through specific heat capacity and density, may also be derived. Thermal conductivity and diffusivity can be determined at one or more temperatures over the range of 0 to 90 C.
1.2 SI units are the standard. The values given in parentheses are provided for information purposes only.
