Thermal conductivity of porous carbon materials
Porous carbon materials, in particular carbon aerogels, are the focus of current research. These materials are characterized by an extremely low thermal conductivity, which is mainly due to their porous structure and low bulk density.

Glass Transition Temperature
The glass transition temperature Tg is a point on the temperature scale at which a polymer or glass changes into a rubbery, viscous state. However, this is not the same as the melting point.
Thermal Interface Materials – Overview and application
Thermal interface materials (TIMs) are used in the field of electronics to ensure efficient heat dissipation and prevent local temperature overloads.
Accurately measure Seebeck – importance in science and technology
The Seebeck effect enables the direct conversion of heat into electrical energy.
How does a pushrod dilatometer work?
A dilatometer is a measuring device for recording the thermal expansion of a material sample. The thermal expansion coefficient (CTE = Coefficient of Thermal Expansion) is calculated from the measurement results.
Crystallization and recrystallization of polymers
The properties of solids depend to a large extent on the arrangement of the particles (atoms and molecules) that make up the substances. If the arrangement is random, the substances are amorphous. In crystalline substances, the particles are arranged at regular intervals and in a fixed pattern.
Curing in thermal analysis
Materials that are processed in a liquid aggregate state generally require a certain amount of time to harden.
Specific heat capacity (Cp) with modulated DSC
The specific heat capacity (cp), often referred to as specific heat, is a fundamental thermophysical property of a material. It says something about the ability to store thermal energy.
Measurement of the specific heat capacity (cp) using the transient hot wire method
The specific heat capacity is a fundamental thermophysical property of materials and is useful for assessing materials and their areas of application. It can be determined using dynamic differential scanning calorimetry (DSC).
