Description
The thermal conductivity of γ-LiAlO2 with porosities varying from 7% to 53% has been measured over a temperature range of 1088-1400 K. The conductivity was found to be insensitive to temperature in that regime. This saturation phenomenon was interpreted in terms of minimum conductivity. Thermal conductivity exhibited a non-linear dependence on porosity. It is suggested that the distribution of inter- and intra-granular porosity in the solid was instrumental in bringing about this non-linear behavior. (orig.)
