Compatibility of plastic with phase change materials (PCM)

open access: yesInternational 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.

Solar Drying System Integrated with Phase Change Material PCM

open access: yesInternational Journal of Engineering and Advanced Technology, 2020
The post-harvest losses for agricultural products are around 30%-40% [1]. Drying is a one of the necessary processes for the preservation of agricultural products. Agricultural products require hot air of temperature above 40 ºC for drying. Open sun drying takes more time for drying of products due to slower drying rates.
