A Review on Energy Conservation in Building Applications with Thermal Storage by Latent Heat Using Phase Change Materials

Thermal Energy Storage with Phase Change Materials, 2021
Energy storage in the walls, ceiling and floor of buildings may be enhanced by encapsulating suitable phase change materials (PCMs) within these surfaces to capture solar energy directly and increase human comfort by decreasing the frequency of internal ...

Multiple H‐Bonding Cross‐Linked Supramolecular Solid–Solid Phase Change Materials for Thermal Energy Storage and Management

Advances in Materials, 2023
Solid–solid phase change materials (SSPCMs) are considered among the most promising candidates for thermal energy storage and management. However, the application of SSPCMs is consistently hindered by the canonical trade‐off between high TES capacity and

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 ...
