Expanded graphite (EG)/paraffin composite phase change materials (PCMs), with mass fraction of EG varying from 0 to 10 wt.%, were prepared and characterized. Polarizing optical microscope investigation showed that compact EG networks formed gradually with increase in the mass fraction of EG. These n

In this study, phase change material (PCM) embedded by nanoparticles was prepared by emulsifying alumina (Al 2 O 3 ) nanoparticles in paraffin (n-octadecane) by means of a non-ionic surfactant. The formulated nanoparticle-in-paraffin emulsions contain the nanoparticles of 5 wt.% and 10 wt.%, respect
## Abstract This work is focused on the preparation, characterization, and determination of thermal energy storage properties of poly(__n__βbutyl methacrylate) (PnBMA)/fatty acid composites as formβstable phase change material (PCM). In the composite materials, the fatty acids act as latent heat st
