In phase change thermal energy storage technology, PCMs play a crucial role in determining the performance of the energy storage system. Researching and finding safe, reliable, high energy density, and high-performance PCMs is key to the advancement of phase change thermal energy storage technology.
Phase change materials (PCMs) having a large latent heat during solid-liquid phase transition are promising for thermal energy storage applications. However, the relatively low thermal conductivity of the majority of promising PCMs (<10 W/ (m ⋅ K)) limits the power density and overall storage efficiency.
