Polymers - Specific Heats
Specific heat of some common polymers at 0 oC:
Polymer | Specific Heat (J/(kg oC)) |
---|---|
Epoxy resin, cured | 1110 |
Nylon 6 | 1310 |
PET | 1030 |
PMMA, Perspex | 1270 |
Polycarbonate | 1100 |
Polyethylene | 1550 |
Polystyrene | 1110 |
Rubber, natural - vulcanised or unvulvanised | 1800 |
Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) | 970 |
PVC | 880 |
- 1 J/(kg oC) = 2.389x10-4 kcal/(kg oC) = 2.389x10-4 Btu/(lbm oF)
