Preparation and Properties of Paraffin/TiO<sub>2</sub>/Active-carbon Composite Phase Change Materials

A novel composite phase change materials (PCMs) of paraffin/TiO<sub>2</sub>/active-carbon was prepared by a microemulsion method, where paraffin acted as a PCM and titanium dioxide (TiO<sub>2</sub>) as matrix material, and a small amount of active carbon was added to improve...
