The contribution of the muscle to the specific heat of the body is approximately 47%, and the contribution of the fat and skin is approximately 24%. The specific heat of tissues range from ~0.7 kJ · kg−1 · °C−1 for tooth (enamel) to 4.2 kJ · kg−1 · °C−1 for eye (sclera). [13]

This is a table of specific heat capacities by magnitude. ... Argon: 677 Glass: 720 Graphite: 757 Potassium: 824 Fluorine: 900 Aluminium: Kilo-10 3: 1030 Neon: 1230 ...
Argon is used for thermal insulation in energy-efficient windows. [47] Argon is also used in technical scuba diving to inflate a dry suit because it is inert and has low thermal conductivity. [48] Argon is used as a propellant in the development of the Variable Specific Impulse Magnetoplasma Rocket (VASIMR).
In thermal physics and thermodynamics, the heat capacity ratio, also known as the adiabatic index, the ratio of specific heats, or Laplace's coefficient, is the ratio of the heat capacity at constant pressure (C P) to heat capacity at constant volume (C V).
