ISO 22007-1 Plastics, Determination of Thermal Conductivity and Thermal Dissipation, Part 1: General Principles

EUROLAB laboratory provides testing and compliance services within the scope of ISO 22007-1 standard. ISO 22007-1 describes the background to methods for determining thermal conductivity and thermal dissipation of polymeric materials.

Different techniques are available for these measurements, and some may be more appropriate than others for a particular material type, condition, and form. ISO 22007-1 provides a broad overview of these techniques. The standards specific to these techniques referred to in this standard are used to perform the actual test method.

Thermal conductivity specifically refers to the mode of heat transfer by conduction. Other modes of heat transfer may occur in thermal conductivity measurements, such as convection, radiation, and mass transfer.

Where these modes are important, the measured property is often referred to as the apparent or effective thermal conductivity. Thermal conductivity is affected by the conditions under which it is measured, such as temperature and pressure, as well as by the compositional variation of the material or the orientation of the sample, as some materials are not isotropic.
