Study on Characteristics Enhancement of High
Temperature Phase Change Materials for Thermal Energy Storage
«We're interested in the radiation damage case in particular, but other applications might include studying low -
temperature phase change materials, or real - time monitoring of oxide layer formation on steel alloys,» he said.

changes in external conditions, such as
temperature or pressure, they can undergo a
phase transition.
Instead, the new system uses molecular switches that
change shape in response to light; when integrated into the PCM, the
phase -
change temperature of the hybrid
material can be adjusted with light, allowing the thermal energy of the
phase change to be maintained even well below the melting point of the original
material.
Each compound, Sutterlin says, naturally melts or solidifies at a different specific

Do you deny that increasing the mass, by coupling to sub-surface
material by conduction, or a (transparent) atmosphere by convection, would reduce the rate of
