Analysis of the available data to expand the liquid thermal conductivity standard of benzene along the saturation line. Most of this data has been collected using the transient hot wire technique and is of such quality that for most of the liquid range, the new standard reference values can be proposed with uncertaintie values lower than 1% ....
New representative equations are put forth for the thermal conductance of benzene (C6H6) which are based on a body of experimental data that has been critically assessed for internal consistency and for agreement with theory. The data was obtained through use of the thermal hot wire technique, among others. These correlations are applicable from the triple point to temperatures up to 725 ...
Researchers in this study aimed to develop polymer composites with high thermal conductivity, using polystyrene (PS) and multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs). These composites were prepared by ultrasonic radiation, through a simple-solution-evaporation method. Poly(styrene-co-maleic anhydride) (PSMA), with a benzene group and experiencing a strong affinity for PS was used as a base, to allow the MWNTs to be dispersed within the composite (MWNT-g-SMA). Results determined that the addition of MWNTs ...
