Abstract
We measured the thermal conductivity of a Kevlar cord, 0.8 mm in diameter, in the 0.1-2.5 K temperature range. The data were fitted with a power-law: k = (3.9 +/- 0.2) x 10(-5)T(1.17+/-0.04) W/cm K. Our results are in good ac cordance with the existing data at T > 2 K. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
