Standard Practice for Thermal Conductivity of Materials Using a Thermal Capacitance (Slug) Calorimeter

Importancia y uso:

5.1 This practice is useful for testing materials in general, including composites and multi-layered types.

5.2 The practice is especially useful for materials which undergo significant reactions or local dimensional changes, or both, during exposure to elevated temperatures and thus are difficult to evaluate using existing standard test methods such as Test Method C1113.

5.3 Performing the test over multiple heating/cooling cycles allows an assessment of the influence of reactions, phase changes, and mass transfer of reactions gases (for example, steam) on the thermal performance.

Note 3: This practice has been found to be especially applicable to testing fire resistive materials.
