Applications of commodity polymers are often hindered by their low thermal conductivity. In these systems, going from the standard polymers dictated by weak van der Waals interactions to biocompatible hydrogen-bonded smart polymers, the thermal transport coefficient K varies between 0.1 and 0.4 Wm(-1) K-1. Combining all-atom molecular dynamics simulations with some experiments, we study thermal transport and its link to the elastic response of (standard and smart) commodity plastics. We find that there exists a maximum attainable stiffness (or sound-wave velocity), thus providing an upper bound of K for these solid polymers. The specific chemical structure and the glass transition temperature play no role in controlling K, especially when the microscopic interactions are hydrogen-bonding based. Our results are consistent with the minimum thermal conductivity model and existing experiments. The effect of polymer stretching on K is also discussed.
