For solids Thermal Conductivity is dependent on lattice vibrations and movement of free electrons, as temp increases movement of free electrons is hampered by lattice vibrations.

Thermal conductivity is inversely proportional to temperature(According Fourier's law of heat conduction).

Heat transfer in metal can be,
1. By lattice vibration.
2. By free electron transfer(free electron provide the heat flux in the direction of decreasing temperature).
(Factor two is more dominating to factor one but both act simultaneously).
According to second point. If we increase the temperature of metal these decrease the tendency free moving electron.
These may be reason for decreasing conductivity of metal.

In solids the molecules are closely packed. The heat transfer more because this arrangement. Hence the conductivity increases with increases with increase in temperature.
