Insert the information in the form and the calculator will determine the heat capacity.

What is the heat capacity?

The heat capacity is a physical property of matter and it is the ammount of that should be supplied to an object in order to produce a unit change in it's temperature. It is measured by J/K.

How to calculate heat capacity?

To calculate heat capacity you should use the following formula:
Q = m * s * ΔT
where:
Q = heat energy
m = mass
s = specific heat capacity
ΔT = change in temperature

Why use heat capacity?

Heat capacity is used to determine the processing temperatures and amount of heat necessary for processing and can be helpful in differentiating between two polymeric composites.
