A need for a new test method to determine the effective thermal conductivity of fire resistive materials at high temperatures has prompted ASTM International Committee E37 on Thermal Measurements to begin work on a proposed new standard, WK12643 , Test Method for Slug Calorimetry. The proposed standard is under the jurisdiction of Subcommittee E37.05 on Thermophysical Properties. According to…

ASTM International Committee E37 on Thermal Measurements is seeking participation in a new subcommittee, E37.09 on Biological Calorimetry. Since its inception, the focus of Committee E37 has been the creation of methods for the calibration and use of thermal analysis instrumentation. One of the first types of thermal analysis instruments that was developed commercially on a large scale was…
