Popis: Thermal conductivity data for several TiB2 samples are presented and the results for one sample extend from 80 to 400 K. These results show that the thermal conductivity attains a maximum value of about 130 W/m K at 140 K. An analysis of the results shows that this is caused by the electronic component of the thermal conductivity and that phonon conduction is also probably significant. Seebeck coefficient values agreed with the results of previous studies. The electrical resistivity of one sample was also determined to 1800 K. These results can be described by the Bloch–Gruneisen equation if the effect of thermal expansion is included.
