Abstract

We describe an experimental method capable of evaluating the in- and out-of-plane components of the anisotropic thermal diffusivity in supported and unsupported thin polymer films. The technique is used to quantify the in-plane thermal diffusivity in films of PMDA/ODA (Dupont's P12545), BTDA/ODA/MPD (Dupont's P12555), BPDA/PPD (Dupont's P12611), BCB (Dow's Cyclotene 3022) and HFDA-APBP (Amoco's UD4212) with thicknesses in the 1–10 micron range.
