  • Patent number: 11560504
    Abstract: Among other things, the present disclosure relates to phase change material (PCM) composites composed of an PCM mixed with a nucleating agent contained within the pores of a graphite matrix and/or a hydrogel. The process to create these PCM composites includes coating the surface of graphite with a surfactant, compressing the graphite to form a matrix, then filling the graphite matrix with the PCM.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20220243998
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to encapsulation of a phase change material (PCM) enabled by extrusion of a thermoplastic polymer shell and a PCM core, which can be additively manufactured to form a variety of designs for use in a variety of settings, including for use as thermal energy storage devices in building heating ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) systems. The thermoplastic polymer shell surrounding a PCM core may be used as a filament in three-dimensional (3D) printing or may be extruded during the additive manufacturing process.
