Production and Characterization of Nanoencapsulated Phase Change Materials (PCMs) and Bicomponent PCM Nanofibers

open access: yesTekstil ve Konfeksiyon, 2021
In this study, n-dodecanol and 1-tetradecanol were nanoencapsulated by poly(methyl metharcylate-co-methacrylic acid) (p(MM-co-MA)) wall using emulsion polymerization method which was defined as one-stage (OS) or two-stage (TS). Nanocapsules were analyzed by Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy (TEM ...

Parametric analysis of influencing factors in Phase Change Material Wallboard (PCMW) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Incorporating Phase Change Materials (PCMs) into traditional building structures has been considered as an effective way to reduce the mismatch between energy supply and demand and in turn to minimise energy consumption (cooling/heating energy).
