Preparation and Thermal Properties of Hexadecanol-Myristic Acid Eutectics/ Activated Carbon Composites as Shape-stabilized Phase Change Materials in Thermal Energy Storage

In this study, hexadecanol-myristic acid (HD-MA) binary eutectic mixtures were adsorbed into activated carbon (AC) to prepare the composite phase transition materials(CPCMs). In the hexadecanol-myristic acid/activated carbon (HD-MA/AC) composites, the mixture of HD–MA acted as the phase change energ...
