We report on an in-plane thermal diffusivity study of suspended graphene powder (GP) measured by the transient electro-thermal (TET) technique. The GP with a density of 0.24 g.cm(-3) is made up of five-six-layer graphene. And the average size of graphene flakes used in our study is 0.98 mu m. The intrinsic thermal conductivity perpendicular to in-plane of GP is determined at 18.8W.(m.K)(-1) using the thermal conductivity instrument, and the range of the in-plane thermal diffusivity of GP is identified from 0.86 x 10(-5) m(2).s(-1) to 1.52 x 10(-5) m(2).s(-1) measured by the TET technique. Accordingly, the corresponding intrinsic thermal conductivity is 13.5W.(m.K)(-1)-23.8W.(m.K)(-1). It is obvious that the two methods used in the experimental research on the intrinsic thermal conductivity of GPin different directions are not only the same order of magnitude but also have a maximum difference of only 5W.(m.K)(-1). The results of our experiments are about one order of magnitude lower than those reported for four-five-layer graphene. There are various porosities in the whole sample after the compaction steps in the preparation of the samples, which gives rise to a large thermal contact resistance. And widely uneven surface defects observed under an optical microscope for the studied GP lead to substantial phonon scattering. Those factors combine together to give the observed significant reduction in the thermal conductivity.
