Polymers at Low Temperatures: Increasing Thermal Diffusivity in Specific Heat Measurements
Review of scientific instruments, v 42(5), pp 614-615
May 1971
Abstract
The thermal diffusivity of samples of powdered high polymers can be increased (at least in the temperature range 1–20 K) by compressing them with copper powder. Hence thermal relaxation times in specific heat measurements can be decreased. The specific heat of the copper is relatively small and is well known. Calorimeter vessels are then unnecessary.
