ISOPAR - L from Exxon Mobil Chemical.

I can't find these anywhere - neither can Exxon Chemical. Exxon has various distributors but none of them have it either. My only hope is if someone else did tests.

I need Cp and K values to do an honest analysis. If anyone knows anything, enlighten us!

Also, where is a good resource for thermal props of common materials used for electronics packaging? It's rather frightening how numbers can vary from one source to the other on the same material at same temperatures.
 
isopar is not a purity substance it is a mixture of hydrocarbons that have commercial properties. I found data exxon at
You can use generalized tables in the GPSA engineering databook to for Cp based on boiling points, gravities and such found on the web site.
