Thermal conductivity for gas

Thermal conductivity of a substance is an intensive property that indicates its ability to conduct heat.

Air and other gases are generally good insulators, in the absence of convection. Light gases, such as hydrogen and helium typically have high thermal conductivity. Dense gases such as xenon have low thermal conductivity. An exception, sulfur hexafluoride, a dense gas, has a relatively high thermal conductivity due to its high heat capacity. Argon, a gas denser than air, is often used in double paned windows to improve their insulation characteristics.
