The paper describes the research on the method of production of granulated phase-change materials (PCM) used in construction industry for the accumulation of thermal energy. As mineral materials for the granules preparation zeolite from fly ash Na-P1 and natural diatomite dust were used which were impregnated with paraffinic filtration waste and granulated using a combined granulation method. Obtained granules were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), nitrogen adsorption/desorption isotherm, and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Mechanical strength of the materials was determined in a “drop strength” test. Performed analyses revealed that mineral composition and micromorphology of the diatomite and zeolite granules were varied, with zeolite granules having higher mechanical strength.

Polypropylene/organoclay modified by dodecanol phase change material were prepared by melt blending method. The thermal stability and crystallization behavior was studied by thermogravimetry (TG), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and X-ray diffraction (XRD). TG results indicated the window of processing of PP could be improved by adding small amount organoclay modified by dodecanol to the blend. DSC showed the organoclay modified by dodecanol affected the crystallization behavior of PP as heterogeneous nucleation agent. XRD results show that the organoclay modified by dodecanol does not change the crystal structure in the blends but only decrease the intensity of the diffraction peak.

We report on a new approach for the synthesis of TiO2-pillared montmorillonite, where the pillars exhibit a high degree of crystallinity (nanocrystals) representing a mixture of anatase and rutile phases. The structures exhibit improved adsorption and photocatalytic activity as a result of hydrothermally activated intercalation of titanium polyhydroxo complexes (i.e., TiCl4 hydrolysis products) in a solution with a concentration close to the sol formation limit. The materials, produced at various annealing temperatures from the intercalated samples, were characterized by infrared spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC)/thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), X-ray diffraction, dynamic light scattering (DLS) measurements, and liquefied nitrogen adsorption/desorption. The photocatalytic activity of the TiO2-pillared materials was studied using the degradation of anionic (methyl orange, MO) and cationic (rhodamine B, RhB) dyes in water under UV irradiation. The combined effect of adsorption and photocatalysis resulted in removal of 100% MO and 97.5% RhB (with an initial concentration of 40 mg/L and a photocatalyst-sorbent concentration of 1 g/L) in about 100 minutes. The produced TiO2-pillared montmorillonite showed increased photocatalytic activity as compared to the commercially available photocatalyst Degussa P25.

In this study, novel solid–solid phase change materials (PCM) composed of polyacrylonitrile, binary of fatty acids ((blending of stearic acid (SA) and lauric acid (LA)) and zeolite molecular sieve (ZMS) were prepared by solution blending process. The structure and properties of the PCM were characterized using flourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), polarized optical microscopy (POM), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetric analysis (TG), respectively. DSC analysis indicated that the crystallization latent heat of the PCM was 125.22 J/g and its phase transition temperature was about 17 °C. The temperature curve for step cooling of the PCM showed that it’s holding time achieved 1 480 s, which explains that the PCM had excellent heat-insulating properties. Based on all results it can be concluded that the novel PCM can be considered as potential PCM for thermal energy storage.

AbstractThe crystallization behavior of Ge-Sb phase change materials with variable Ge:Sb ratio X between 0.079 and 4.3 was studied using time-resolved x-ray diffraction, differential scanning calorimetry, x-ray reflectivity, optical reflectivity and resistivity vs. temperature measurements. It was found that the crystallization temperature increases with Ge content from about 130 °C for X = 0.079 to about 450 °C for X = 4.3. For low X, Sb x-ray diffraction peaks occurred during a heating ramp at lower temperature than Ge diffraction peaks. For X = 1.44 and higher, Sb and Ge peaks occurred at the same temperature. Mass density change upon crystallization and optical and electrical contrast between the phases show a maximum for the eutectic alloy with X = 0.17. The large change in materials properties with composition allows tailoring of the crystallization properties for specific application requirements.

A new type of shape stabilized phase change material (PCM) with good heat storage was produced by intercalating myristic acid (MA) with modifid montmorillonite (MMT). The structure, thermal properties of the composite PCM were determined by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transformation infrared (FTIR) and Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) analysis technique. In the XRD analysis, expansions of the d spacings in the (001) plane were observed in all samples, indicating that the intercalation of MA in the interlayers of MMT was successfully achieved. The results of DSC indicated that the shape stabilized PCM displayed a high heat capacity (133.6 J.g-1)

“T-history method” is widely used for characterization of thermal properties of Phase Change Material (PCM). In this study improvements are proposed to the experimental protocol used in the conventional T-History method. Experimental validation of numerical predictions for various samples of PCM were performed using the proposed measurement technique. This enabled the evaluation of the improvements in the proposed approach as well as for analyzing the experimental results. This involved measurement of temperature at the surface and in the center of the PCM samples (as well as that of the reference sample materials). The proposed modifications enable enhanced accuracy for estimation of the material properties (when compared to the conventional approaches). The estimates from the proposed approach were observed to be within 10% of the measured values obtained using Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC). The proposed approach is amenable to testing large sample sizes, is simpler to implement, provides more rapid data collection and is more cost-effective than that obtained using standard DSC protocols.

This study involved the preparation and characterization of polyethylene glycol (PEG)/ polyacrylamide (PAM) composite as solid-solid phase change materials (PCM). In this study, the polyethylene glycol / polyacrylamide composites as solid-solid phase change material was prepared, and the phase change behavior and crystalline morphology of the phase change materials were investigated using differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) , wide-angle X-ray diffraction (WAXD). Results indicated that the composite remained solid when the weight percentage of PEG was less than 60%. The PEG/PAM composite that exhibited solid-solid phase change behavior can be used as a new kind of phase change material for the shortage of thermal energy and temperature control.

A Phase Change Material (PCM) based on paraffinic wax encapsulated in polymer shell is used for improvement of the heat storage capacity of commercially produced dry plaster, originally developed for both exterior and interior hand application. The composition of PCM modified plasters is designed with respect to the workability of fresh mixtures. Characterization of applied PCM is done using the measurement of particle size distribution, powder density, and matrix density. For the newly developed composite plasters, basic physical properties, mechanical properties, and thermal properties are accessed, whereas a specific attention is paid to the Difference Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) analysis. Using DSC measurement, temperatures of phase change transitions and phase changes enthalpies are identified. The obtained results show that the temperature induced phase change can be used for the release and storage of thermal energy in buildings, which can be beneficially utilized for saving the energy spent for the achievement of the indoor thermal comfort.
