Notes:
The influence of pressure on the thermal conductivity K of four vitreous poly(alkly methacrylate) polymers has been measured by steady state techniques. The measurements were made under pressures up to 2 kbar and over a temperature range between 173 and 300°K. For each member of the homologous series, K was found to increase with applied pressure. Shifts in thermal conductivity transition temperatures (attributed to glass transition phenomena) of 25, 26, and 16°C per kbar of applied pressure were observed for poly(methyl methacrylate), poly(ethyl methacrylate), and poly(n-isobutyl methacrylate).
