BS ISO 12987:2004

Carbonaceous materials for the production of aluminium. Anodes, cathodes blocks, sidewall blocks and baked ramming pastes. Determination of the thermal conductivity using a comparative method. | Status: Confirmed, Current

1 Scope This International Standard specifies a method for the determination of thermal conductivity of carbonaceous material in the temperature range of 20 °C to 60 °C. The typical range of thermal conductivity for these materials is 2 W/(K·m) to 100 W/(K·m). This method can be used for other carbon materials, such as graphitized electrodes for other applications.
