TL;DR: In this article, the authors provide an insight on the development and thermo-physical properties of eutectic (binary and ternary) EO-PCMs as well as their composites as nanoenhanced and form stable phase change materials (FSPCMs).
Journal ArticleDOI
Silica fume/capric acid-stearic acid PCM included-cementitious composite for thermal controlling of buildings: Thermal energy storage and mechanical properties
Gökhan Hekimoğlu,Memduh Nas,Mohammed Ouikhalfan,Mohammed Ouikhalfan,Ahmet Sarı,Ahmet Sarı,V.V. Tyagi,R.K. Sharma,Şirin Kurbetci,Tawfik A. Saleh +9 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the physicochemical compatibility between CA-SA eutectic PCM and silica fume (SF) was studied by fourier transform infrared (FTIR), X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscope (SEM) techniques.
Journal ArticleDOI
Long-term thermal and chemical reliability study of different organic phase change materials for thermal energy storage applications
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used a differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) to measure the melting temperature and the latent heat of fusion at zeroth cycle and after 100th, 500th, 1000th, and 1500th thermal cycles.
