Abstract. In this study, the specific heat Cp formed by PMMA with different concentrations of PPy are measured. The specific heat is measured by using differential scanning calorimetry method (DSC). We notice that in this nano-composite (PMMA/PPy) our sample containing 2 – 8 wt% of PPy filler material. For modelisation, we have used the mixture law for thermal properties. As the results show, we have obtained a good agreement between the thermal properties.
