摘要：

The development of phase change materials (PCM) for thermal energy storage is a promising technology. However, the liquid PCM leaks and low thermal conductivity limit the practical PCM applications. This article aims to solve these problems; it presents the preparation and thermal characterisation of PCM enhanced by carbon-based nanoparticles. The polyethene glycol 6000 (PEG 6000) is used as PCM and multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) as a shell matrix and thermal conductivity enhancer. The sample was prepared by the sonification method under vacuum conditions. Fourier transform infra-red spectroscopy (FT-IR) and thermo-gravimetric analysis (TGA) tested the chemical and thermal compatibility of the prepared samples. The storage performances are tested by modulated differential scanning calorimetry characterisation. The nano-enhanced-PCM (NPCM) with 1 wt% MWCNTs showed excellent shape stability without any liquid leakage when the temperature was about 110 degrees C for 30 minutes. Drying method has a significant effect on the thermal storage capacity of the NPCM. The melting, solidification points and the latent heats of the NPCM were measured as 61.75, 35.50 degrees C, and 174.24, 167.84 J g(-1), respectively. Meanwhile, the specific heat is 2.63 J g(-1)degrees C-1 for the solid-state and 2.14 J g(-1)degrees C-1 for the liquid-state. The thermal conductivity of pristine PEG was improved by 49%.
