Abstract The paper presents the results of a study on the corrosion behaviour of copper (EN CW004A) in five possible phase change materials (PCMs): magnesium nitrate hexahydrate pure and with an addition of Mg(OH)2 (0.5 wt. %) or Sr(OH)2 (0.5 wt. %) at 90 °C, calcium nitrate tetrahydrate at 50 °C and a mixture of magnesium nitrate hexahydrate and calcium nitrate tetrahydrate (1:1 mass ratio) at 72 °C. The corrosion rate of copper samples is low except for the use of Mg(NO3)2 · 6H2O with/without an addition of Mg(OH)2. The lowest corrosion rate was observed for the mixture Mg(NO3)2 · 6H2O—Ca(NO3)2 · 4H2O (1:1), and it was ca six times lower than that of pure magnesium nitrate hexahydrate.

Phase change heat storage material is a preferred material in solar building heating or off-peak electric-heat storage heating technology and is the research focus. A compact phase change thermal storage device has been designed and experimentally studied for improving heating system load in this work. A new type, magnesium nitrate hexahydrate-based phase change material has been studied to improve the cooling degree and crystallization difficulty. The focus of this study is on the heat charging and discharging characteristics of this new phase change material. The heat storage device has two groups of coils, the inner side which carries water and the outer side which is the phase change material. A testing system was built up to value the thermal cycling performance of the heat storage device. The measurement data include phase change material temperature field, water inlet and water outlet mean temperature, heat charging and heat discharging depth, and flow rates over the operating period. The results show the phase change material has a quick response with the operating temperature range of 20–99 °C. Its latent heat is 151.3 J/g at 91.8 °C. The heat storage density of this phase change material is about 420 MJ/m3. The thermal performance degradation is about 1.8% after 800 operation cycles. The phase change thermal storage device shows flexibility and a great potential to improve the capacity and economy of heating systems.

AbstractA simultaneous DSC–thermomicroscopy system (DSC450 Linkam Scientific) was applied to the study of phase transitions in rubidium nitrate and silver iodide, the oxidation of polyethylene, the thermal degradation of polylactic acid and magnesium nitrate hexahydrate, and the reversible transitions in thermochromic inks. The results demonstrated the benefits of obtaining simultaneous optical data, both images and light intensity measurements, with DSC, particularly in the interpretation of complex processes and the detection of events with small changes in enthalpy.

Magnesium borate hydroxide (MgBO2(OH) ) were synthesized using magnesium nitrate hexahydrate(MgNO3.6H2O) and borax decahydrate(Na2B4O7.10H2O) by hydrothermal route. Effect of reaction temperature , reaction time and water's volume on the composition , structure , and crystal morphology of the products were investigated, and the products were characterized by XRD and SEM. The results indicated that all of the products were szaibelyite with the reaction condition investigated, and crystal morphology could be tailored via varying the reaction condition.

AbstractTemperature dependency of densities of the liquid system magnesium nitrate hexahydrate - zinc nitrate hexahydrate was measured. Densities of liquid mixtures were experimentally measured at different temperatures by a method using submersible corpuscle. Based on the obtained data, temperature dependence on the density was obtained. A model describing the density in the whole concentration range very well was created.
