摘要: The application of organic phase change material (PCM) using in thermal energy storage system was limited by low thermal conductivity and leakage problem. In this paper, we reported a low-cost supporting material with good thermal conductivity by carboning the biomass of maize straw. The composite PCM of stearic acid (SA)/carbonized maize straw (CMS) was prepared via vacuum impregnation process and characterized by XRD, FT-IR, SEM. The results show that SA/CMS has good chemical compatibility. DSC, TGA as well as thermal conductivity and thermal history method were used to evaluate the thermal properties of SA/CMS. The DSC result reveals that the composite SA/CMS melted at 67.62 degrees C with the latent heat of 160.74 J/g and freezed at 65.28 degrees C with the latent heat of 160.47 J/g. The maximum loading capacity of SA in composite of SA/CMS reached 77.22%. TGA and DTG results show SA/CMS have good thermal stability. Thermal conductivity of SA/CMS reached 0.30 W/(m.K), which was 87.5% higher than that of the pure SA. Compared with SA, the melting time of SA/CMS reduced 50% and the freezing time reduced 73%. 200 thermal cycling test shows the SA/CMS exhibits excellent thermal reliability. Based on all results, it can be expected that the form-stable composite PCM of SA/CMS has good potential application in solar heat energy storage system and energy-efficient buildings.
