Abstract

Within the international frameworks of the BIPM CCT-WG9 and the Euramet TC-T, and taking into account the great challenge of sustainable development, LNE as the French national metrology institute (NMI) has been developing in the recent past a unique metrological platform structured around complementary, versatile, and very accurate facilities to measure the main physical and chemical properties of materials. The objective is to address new societal issues and industrial needs. Research, development of reference measurement methods, dissemination of measurements or SI-traceable calibrations, certification of reference materials, and knowledge transfer to industry and society constitute the common cornerstones of the laboratory activities. Beyond the basic activities necessary to strengthen the different metrological scales emerging in force relative to the thermophysical properties of materials, this article aims to describe new developments in progress especially for measuring the radiative properties and the thermal transport properties. Methods and targets for associated uncertainties are also highlighted.
