Synthesis and characterization of a novel high durability alloy microcapsule for thermal energy storage
TL;DR: In this paper, a novel alloy microcapsule with a void was prepared successfully with SnBi58 alloy as the core and TiO2 as the shell by double-layer coating, sacrificial inner layer method, which can accommodate volume expansion during heat storage, thus fundamentally solving the problem of micro-capsule break caused by thermal expansion.

An investigation of the thermal energy storage capacity of Glauber's salt with respect to thermal cycling
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compared the thermal energy storage capacity of the unthickened mixture to the thickened mixture as a function of thermal cycling and showed a significant improvement in performance of the thinnened mixture over that of the Glauber's salt and borax mixture.
