Compatibility of plastic with phase change materials (PCM)

International Journal of Energy Research, 2010
Even though paraffin interactions with plastics are known by industry, plastics are commonly proposed as container materials for encapsulating phase change materials (PCM) in many applications. In the literature, there are very few experimental studies of organic PCM migration in plastics and its effects on plastic properties.
