Understanding colossal barocaloric effects in plastic crystals

Colossal barocaloric effects with high entropy changes is reported in plastic crystal neopentylglycol, while microscopic mechanism needs to be further explored. Here, the authors show hydrogen bond related reorientational dynamics of neopentylglycol and provide insights in order-disorder transition.
