Liquid-crystal polymers are present in melted/liquid or solid form. [7] In solid form, the main example of lyotropic LCPs is the commercial aramid known as Kevlar . The chemical structure of this aramid consists of linearly substituted aromatic rings linked by amide groups.

Kevlar (para-aramid) [2] is a strong, heat-resistant synthetic fiber, related to other aramids such as Nomex and Technora. Developed by Stephanie Kwolek at DuPont in 1965, [ 3 ] [ 2 ] [ 4 ] the high-strength material was first used commercially in the early 1970s as a replacement for steel in racing tires.

Thermal conductivity, frequently represented by k, is a property that relates the rate of heat loss per unit area of a material to its rate of change of temperature. Essentially, it is a value that accounts for any property of the material that could change the way it conducts heat. [ 1 ]
Key thermophysical properties of phase-change materials include: Melting point (T m), Heat of fusion (ΔH fus), Specific heat (c p) (of solid and liquid phase), Density (ρ) (of solid and liquid phase) and thermal conductivity. Values such as volume change and volumetric heat capacity can be calculated there from.
Fig. 1: Heat flow between two solids in contact and the temperature distribution. When two solid bodies come in contact, such as A and B in Figure 1, heat flows from the hotter body to the colder body. From experience, the temperature profile along the two bodies varies, approximately, as shown in the figure. A temperature drop is observed at ...
The dimensionless heat capacity of a material is = = where C is the heat capacity of a body made of the material in question (J/K) n is the amount of substance in the body ; R is the gas constant (J⋅K −1 ⋅mol −1) N is the number of molecules in the body. (dimensionless)
