Emulsion stability and cross-linking of PMMA microcapsules containing phase change materials
Al-Shannaq, Refat; Farid, Mohammed; Al-Muhtaseb, Shaheen; Kurdi, Jamal ( Elsevier , 2015 , Article)The microencapsulation of paraffin as a phase change material (PCM) using poly methyl methacrylate (PMM) as a shell was investigated by means of suspension polymerization. The increase in the emulsion stability by using ... -
Screening alternatives for producing paraffinic phase change materials for thermal energy storage in buildings
Kurdi, Jamal; Al-Muhtaseb, Shaheen; Madadkhahsalmassi, Bahareh; Farid, Mohammed ( John Wiley and Sons Ltd , 2017 , Article)Screening alternatives for producing paraffinic phase change materials (PCMs) from natural gas‐based products was investigated. Based on the quality and cost of these PCMs, two sources were identified: (i) hydrogenated ... -
Supercooling elimination of phase change materials (PCMs) microcapsules
Al-Shannaq, Refat; Kurdi, Jamal; Al-Muhtaseb, Shaheen; Dickinson, Michelle; Farid, Mohammed ( Elsevier , 2015 , Article)Microencapsulated phase change materials (PCM) must not experience any supercooling, otherwise cannot be used in any latent heat applications. In this study Rubitherm®RT58 and1-octadecanol were selected as nucleating agents ...
