6. List of thermal conductivities - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_thermal_conductivities

   In heat transfer, the thermal conductivity of a substance, k, is an intensive property that indicates its ability to conduct heat. For most materials, the amount of heat conducted varies (usually non-linearly) with temperature. [1] Thermal conductivity is often measured with laser flash analysis. Alternative measurements are also established.
