Measurement of the thermal conductivity of flexible biosourced polymers using the 3-omega method
Archive ouverte : Article de revue
International audience. The thermal conductivity of flexible biosourced polymers was measured by the 3-omega method. Two biopolymers were investigated: the polylactic acid (PLA), a widely used commercial biodegradable one, and the cellulose palmitate (CP), a hydrophobic biosourced material developed in the laboratory, that could be used in electronic or microfluidic applications. The 3-omega method is based-on the use of a metal element as both heating device to thermally disturb the system and temperature sensor. A stencil lithography technique was applied to obtain metallic lines, since biopolymers are not compatible with classical photolithography method. Thermal conductivities of 0.19 and 0.30 W/m.K are obtained respectively for PLA and CP thick films, and 0.12 and 0.22 W/m.K for respectively PLA and CP thin films. These values are close to those measured for petro-sourced substrates or films and so give the possibility to address the applications mentioned.
