I don’t know the values, but if you provide me with some samples I could
probably measure the thermal diffusivity for you.

Subject: Thermal conductivity of insect cuticle and/or chitin
Happy New Year to you all!
Is anybody out there who can tell me the thermal conductivity (and
specific heat) of insect cuticle and/or chitin.
All hints and numbers are gratefully received.
Kind regards,
Ulrike
