This article aimed to analyze the abilities of self-assembled microcapsules containing calcium carbonate shells and paraffin-based binary cores to act as thermal energy storages. The thermal properties of the microcapsules, such as thermal conductivity and phase change properties, were obtained using the transient plane source (...
A series of melamine-formaldehyde microcapsules were synthesized using an in-situ polymerization and subsequently characterized for their thermal and structural properties. SEM and FT-IR were used to investigate the structural properties and DSC and TGA were used to investigate the thermal properties. The authors concluded that ...
