Through the addition of graphite powder (GP) and expanded graphite (EG) the authors were able to increase the thermal conductivity of a shape-stabilized paraffin/high density polyethylene (HDPE) composite phase change material (PCM). GP and EG were added in different mass fractions and a Thermal Constants Analyzer was used in order to measure the thermal conductivity. The relationship between mass fractions of GP and EG added were found to have ...
