Materials Research for Passive Solar Systems: Solid-State Phase-Change Materials

NREL

Research output: NLR › Technical Report

Abstract

A set of solid-state phase-change materials is being evaluated for possible use in passive solar thermal energy storage systems. The most promising materials are organic solid solutions of pentaerythritol (C5H12O4), pentaglycerine (C5H12O3), and neopentyl glycol (C5H12O2).
