  • Method for Encapsulating Latent Heat Storage Material and Products Obtained Thereby
    Publication number: 20110017944
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing an inorganic latent heat storage material that is surrounded by an encapsulating layer that is made of an inorganic-organic polymer material that comprises a metal and/or semi-metal oxygen network with embedded organic groups. The method is characterised in that a liquid or liquefied latent heat storage material, in the form of discrete units that are to be, respectively, encapsulated, is introduced into a liquid or viscous precursor material of the encapsulating material such that the encapsulating material solidifies when coming into contact with the outer surfaces of said latent heat storage material.
