Area of Science:

  • Materials Science
  • Chemical Engineering
  • Nanotechnology

Background:

  • Surface tension issues hinder uniform encapsulation of phase change materials (PCMs) with supporting materials.
  • Developing efficient synthesis methods for supported PCMs is crucial for advanced thermal energy storage.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a novel one-pot, one-step (OPOS) protocol for synthesizing TiO2-supported PCM composites.
  • To improve encapsulation efficiency, thermal conductivity, and light-to-thermal conversion of PCMs.

Main Methods:

  • A one-pot, one-step synthesis involving in-situ formation of porous TiO2 within melted PCMs.
  • Stirring and heating without organic solvents or catalysts, enabling easy scale-up.
  • Characterization of the composite's encapsulation ratio, thermal conductivity, and light-to-thermal conversion.

Main Results:

  • Achieved a 66.5% encapsulation ratio and 166.8% thermal conductivity enhancement.
  • Demonstrated 94.7% light-to-thermal conversion efficiency.
  • The composite exhibited promising bacterial inhibition activity without leakage.

Conclusions:

  • The OPOS method offers a straightforward, environmentally friendly, and scalable route for producing high-performance TiO2-supported PCM composites.
  • The synthesized composite shows significant improvements in thermal energy storage capabilities and potential for additional functionalities like antibacterial properties.
