Preparation, Characterization and Thermal Properties of Paraffin Wax – Expanded Perlite Form-Stable Composites for Latent Heat Storage

<p>In this study, form-stable composite phase change materials (PCM) for latent heat storage were prepared by impregnating paraffin wax into the pores of the expanded perlite (EP). The characterization of the composite PCMs was performed by FTIR, TGA, SEM and DSC analysis. The melting point an...
