Introduction
A significant increase in the development and application of new and improved materials for broad
ranges of physical, chemical, biological, and medical applications has necessitated better performance
data from methods of measurement of thermal-transport properties. The introduction of alternative
methods that are relatively simple, fast, and of good precision would be of great benefit to the scientific
[1]
and engineering communities.
A number of measurement techniques described as transient methods have been developed and several
have been commercialized. These are being widely used and are suitable for testing many types of
material. In some cases, they can be used to measure several properties separately or simultaneously.
[2],[3]
A further advantage of some of these methods is that it has become possible to measure the true
bulk properties of a material. This feature stems from the possibility of eliminating the influence of
the thermal contact resistance (see 8.1.1) that is present at the interface between the probe and the
[1],[3],[4],[5],[6]
specimen surfaces.

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 22007-2:2015(E)
Plastics — Determination of thermal conductivity and
thermal diffusivity —
Part 2:
Transient plane heat source (hot disc) method
1 Scope
This part of ISO 22007 specifies a method for the determination of the thermal conductivity and
thermal diffusivity, and hence the specific heat capacity per unit volume of plastics. The experimental
arrangement can be designed to match different specimen sizes. Measurements can be made in gaseous
and vacuum environments at a range of temperatures and pressures.
This method is suitable for testing homogeneous and isotropic materials, as well as anisotropic materials
with a uniaxial structure. The homogeneity of the material extends throughout the specimen and no
thermal barriers (except those next to the probe) are present within a range defined by the probing
depth(s) (see 3.2 below).
The method is suitable for materials having values of thermal conductivity, λ, in the approximate
−1 −1 −1 −1
range 0,010 W⋅m ⋅K < λ < 500 W⋅m ⋅K , values of thermal diffusivity, α, in the range
−8 2 −1 −4 2 −1
5 × 10 m ⋅s < α < 10 m ⋅s , and for temperatures, T, in the approximate range 50 K < T < 1 000 K.
NOTE 1 The specific heat capacity per unit volume, C, can be obtained by dividing the thermal conductivity, λ,
−3 −1 −3 −1
by the thermal diffusivity, α, i.e. C = λ/α, and is in the approximate range 0,005 MJ⋅m ⋅K < C < 5 MJ⋅m ⋅K . It is
also referred to as the volumetric heat capacity.
NOTE 2 If the intention is to determine the thermal resistance or the apparent thermal conductivity in the
through-thickness direction of an inhomogeneous product (for instance a fabricated panel) or an inhomogeneous
slab of a material, reference is made to ISO 8301, ISO 8302, and ISO 472.
The thermal-transport properties of liquids can also be determined, provided care is taken to minimize
thermal convection.

4 Principle
A specimen containing an embedded hot disc probe of negligible heat capacity is allowed to equilibrate
at a given temperature. A heat pulse in the form of a stepwise function is produced by an electrical
current through the probe to generate a dynamic temperature field within the specimen. The increase
in the temperature of the probe is measured as a function of time. The probe operates as a temperature
sensor unified with a heat source (i.e. a self-heated sensor). The response is then analysed in accordance
with the model developed for the specific probe and the assumed boundary conditions.

5.2 A typical hot disc probe is shown in Figure 2. Convenient probes can be designed with diameters
from 2 mm to 200 mm, depending on the specimen size and the thermal-transport properties of the
material to be tested. The probe is constructed as a bifilar spiral etched out of a (10 ± 2) µm thick metal
foil and covered on both sides by thin (from 7 µm to 100 µm) insulating film. It is recommended that
nickel or molybdenum be used as the heater/temperature-sensing metal foil due to their relatively
high temperature coefficient of electrical resistivity and stability over a wide temperature range. It is
recommended that polyimide, mica, aluminium nitride, or aluminium oxide be used as the insulating
film, depending on the ultimate temperature of use. The arms of the bifilar spiral forming an essentially
circular probe shall have a width of (0,20 ± 0,03) mm for probes with an overall diameter of 15 mm or
less and a width of (0,35 ± 0,05) mm for probes of larger diameter. The distance between the edges of the
arms shall be the same as the width of the arms.

NOTE Sensor diameters, from 2 mm to 200 mm can conveniently be used, depending on available specimen
size. The distances indicated in this figure should be measured in any but the same unit of length, when used to
calculate the heat loss through the electrical leads according to Formula (16).

5.3 An electrical bridge shall be used to record the transient increase in resistance of the probe. Through
the bridge, which is initially balanced, the successive increases in resistance of the probe shall be followed
by recording the imbalance of the bridge with a sensitive voltmeter (see Figure 3). With this arrangement,
the probe is placed in series with a resistor which shall be designed in such a way that its resistance is
kept strictly constant throughout the transient. These two components are combined with a precision
potentiometer, the resistance of which shall be about 100 times larger than the sum of the resistances of
the probe and the series resistor. The bridge shall be connected to a power supply which can supply 20 V
and a current of up to 1 A. The digital voltmeter by which the difference voltages are recorded shall have
a resolution corresponding to 6,5 digits at an integration time of 1 power line cycle. The resistance of the
series resistor, R , shall be close to the initial resistance of the probe with its leads, R + R , in order to
S 0 L
keep the power output of the probe as constant as possible during the measurement.

5.4 A constant-temperature environment controlled to ±0,1 K or better for the duration of a
measurement shall be established (see Figure 1). The chamber need only be evacuated when working
with slab specimens (see 6.3).
6 Test specimens
6.1 Bulk specimens
6.1.1 For bulk specimens, the requirement for specimen thickness depends on the thermal properties
of the material from which the specimen is made. The expression for the probing depth contains the
diffusivity, which is not known prior to the measurement. This means that the probing depth has to be
calculated after an initial experiment has been completed. If, with this new information, the probing
depth is found to be outside the limits given in 8.1.3, the test shall be repeated, with an adjusted total
measurement time, until the required conditions are fulfilled.
The shape of the specimen can be cylindrical, square, or rectangular. Machining to a certain shape is not
necessary, as long as a flat surface (see 6.1.4) on each of the two specimen halves faces the sensor and
the requirements regarding sensor size given in 8.1.3 are fulfilled.
6.1.2 The measurement shall be conducted in such a way that the probing depth into the specimen
shall be at least 20 times the characteristic length of the components making up the material or of any
inhomogeneity in the material, e.g. the average diameter of the particles if the specimen is a powder.
6.1.3 The specimen dimensions shall be chosen to minimize the effect that its outer surfaces will have
on the measurement. The specimen size shall be such that the distance from any part of the bifilar spiral

SIST EN ISO 22007-2:2015
ISO 22007-2:2015(E)

of the hot disc probe to any part of the outside boundary of the specimen is larger than the overall mean
radius of the bifilar spiral (see 5.2). An increase in this distance beyond the size of the diameter of the
spiral does not improve the accuracy of the results.
6.1.4 Specimen surfaces which are in contact with the sensor shall be plane and smooth. The specimen
halves shall be clamped on to both sides of the hot disc probe.
NOTE Heat sink contact paste is not recommended since:
a) it is difficult to obtain a sufficiently thin layer of paste which will actually improve the thermal contact;
b) the paste obviously increases the heat capacity of the insulating layer and delays the development of the
constant temperature difference between the sensing material and the specimen surface;
c) it is difficult to obtain exactly the same thickness of paste on both sides of the probe and achieve a strictly
symmetrical flow of heat from the heating/sensing material through the insulation into the two specimen
halves.
6.1.5 For liquids, suitable containment vessels with adequate seals are necessary and air bubbles and
evaporation shall be avoided.
Storage and conditioning of the liquid can affect its properties, e.g. by absorption of water or gas. It
might be necessary to pre-treat the specimen prior to testing, e.g. by degassing. However, pre-treatment
procedures shall not be used whenever they could detrimentally affect the material to be tested, e.g.
through degradation.
6.1.6 For materials prone to significant dimensional changes whether instigated by measurements
over large temperature ranges, thermal expansion, change of state, phase transition, or other causes, care
shall be taken to ensure that when placing the hot disc probe in contact with the specimen, the applied
load does not affect the properties of the specimen.
With soft materials, the clamping pressure shall not compress the specimen and thus change its thermal-
transport properties.
6.1.7 The specimen shall be conditioned in accordance with the standard specification which applies to
the type of material and its particular use.
6.2 Anisotropic bulk specimens
6.2.1 If a material is anisotropic, specimens shall be cut (
