A map for phase-change materials

Nature Materials, 2008
Phase-change materials are characterized by a unique property portfolio well suited for data storage applications. Here, a first treasure map for phase-change materials is presented on the basis of a fundamental understanding of the bonding characteristics.

Phase Changing Materials in Buildings

International Journal of Sustainable Building Technology and Urban Development, 2011
New technologies are needed in structures and services in order to reduce the great energy consumption of buildings. A major share of the energy demand is used for controlling the indoor climate. The requirements are only growing due to tightening regulation and increasing comfort expectations of the users.

Phase change materials and the perception of wetness

Ergonomics, 2012
Phase change materials (PCMs) are increasingly incorporated in textiles in order to serve as a thermal buffer when humans change from a hot to a cold environment and the reverse. Due to the absence of wetness sensors in the skin, cooling of the skin may be perceived as a sensation of wetness instead of cold.

Fire retardants for phase change materials

Applied Energy, 2011
Fire-retarded form-stable phase change material (PCM) products consisting of paraffin (RT21) (or propyl ester), high density polyethylene (HDPE) and fire retardants were prepared using the Brabender Plastograph. The properties of the form-stable PCM, containing different types of fire retardants such as magnesium hydroxide, aluminium hydroxide ...

Phase Change Materials

2021
Apart from a purely scientific interest in molecular mixed crystals, the REALM continuously has been interested in finding applications—especially in the field of phase change materials for thermal protection and thermal energy storage. The key parameters are the heat of melting of the material and the thermal window, which is the temperature range in ...

Phase Change Materials

Annual Review of Materials Research, 2009
Phase change materials (PCMs) can exist in at least two different phases (an amorphous and one or more crystalline phases), and they can be switched repeatedly between these phases. The different phases have distinctly different physical properties such as electrical conductivity, optical reflectivity, mass density, or thermal conductivity.

Phase Change Materials

2020
The world’s rapid increase of energy consumption and demand with the environmental bad effects of fossil and traditional fuels prompted scientists and researchers to search for methods of storing and reducing energy consumption. Phase change materials (PCMs) are substances that have the ability to store and release energy at constant temperature during
