Thermal conductivity measurements were made on polyethylene samples which had been crystallized at different temperatures in order to vary density and lamellar crystal thickness. Tests were also made on polyethylenes which were oriented by mechanical shearing and by crystallization in a temperature gradient. The thermal conductivity increased linearly by 50% as the density went from 0.96 to 0.99 gm/cc. By orientation the conductivity was increased ten fold in the direction of molecular orientation and decreased two fold in the perpendicular direction. For samples oriented by deformation at different temperatures, the conductivity apparently correlates with birefringence.
