At Hot Disk AB we specialize in measuring thermal properties (thermal conductivity, thermal diffusivity and specific heat) of solids, liquids, powders and pastes. Our instruments are used for research purposes as well as for industrial quality control. The instruments are distributed on a global market and up till now more than 1500 systems have been installed. Thermal properties are of great interest when conducting any kind of materials research and often necessary for the successful design of any application where heat has to be managed. Furthermore, thermal conductivity is closely related to the material structure, and measuring the thermal conductivity of a product can therefore be a very powerful, non-destructive, quality control tool. Hot Disk AB is located in Gothenburg, Sweden.
