Thermal energy storage using phase change materials (PCMs) has been world-widely accepted as an effective technology for energy saving. In this study, Micro-Encapsulated PCMs (MEPCMs) were developed from Al-Si alloys, in which four kinds of Al-Si microspheres with different Al-Si compositions: Al-12%Si, Al-17%Si, Al-20%Si, and Al-30%Si (mass%) were encapsulated by two facile steps for controlling...
This study reports the thermal analysis of Al–Si alloys as candidate high-temperature phase-change materials (PCM) for temperatures above 500°C and the corrosion behavior of the alloys with ceramic materials. Four Al–Si alloys with different Si contents (0–25wt%) were selected as PCMs. Engineering ceramics such as Al2O3, AlN, Si3N4, SiC, and SiO2 were used for corrosion tests. Thermal analysis showed...
