These thermal greases have low electrical conductivity and their volume resistivities are 1.5⋅10 15, 1.8⋅10 11, and 9.9⋅10 9 Ω⋅cm for 860, 8616 and 8617 respectively. The thermal grease 860 is a silicone oil with a Zinc Oxide filler and 8616 and 8617 are synthetic oils with various fillers including Aluminum Oxide and Boron Nitride.
The thermal conductivity of a material is a measure of its ability to conduct heat.It is commonly denoted by , , or and is measured in W·m −1 ·K −1.. Heat transfer occurs at a lower rate in materials of low thermal conductivity than in materials of high thermal conductivity.

For example, Paraffin has very large molecules and thus a high heat capacity per mole, but as a substance it does not have remarkable heat capacity in terms of volume, mass, or atom-mol (which is just 1.41 R per mole of atoms, or less than half of most solids, in terms of heat capacity per atom).
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).
One of the key predictions of the theory is the following relationship between viscosity , thermal conductivity, and specific heat : k = f μ c v {\displaystyle k=f\mu c_{v}} where f {\displaystyle f} is a constant which in general depends on the details of intermolecular interactions, but for spherically symmetric molecules is very close to 2. ...
In general, works using the term "thermal resistance" are more engineering-oriented, whereas works using the term thermal conductivity are more [pure-]physics-oriented. The following books are representative, but may be easily substituted. Terry M. Tritt, ed. (2004). Thermal Conductivity: Theory, Properties, and Applications. Springer Science ...
