Changes in the thermophysical properties of microcrystalline cellulose as function of carbonization temperature
A B S T R A C T
Thermophysical properties of carbon materials derived from microcrystalline cellulose
have been studied under vacuum and compared with earlier measurements conducted
under nitrogen to better understand the influence of porosity, composition, microstructure,
and atmosphere effects. The effective thermal conductivity in vacuum is lower than that
observed in nitrogen primarily due to the conductivity of nitrogen gas. Radiation effects
in both atmospheres were determined to be negligible. Reduction of thermal diffusivity
in nitrogen was attributed to the effects of nitrogen gas phonon scattering. The trends
for electrical and thermal property changes with structure are similar but not identical
due to the differences in electron and phonon transport mechanisms.
