Abstract This paper presents a general review of the governmental activities in Japan on reference materials and evaluation of thermophysical properties data and then describes recent developments at the National Research Laboratory of Metrology (NRLM) in the field of thermophysical properties and related standards. As for reference materials, the past and present activities organized by the government and a few related associations are reviewed from the point of view of establishing traceability systems, whereas, on the evaluation of thermophysical properties, the framework of collaborative research for establishing data base systems by network sharing is mentioned. Then the recent studies of NRLM on the measurements and standards of thermophysical properties as well as its calibration services are summarized.
