Research and Application of Phase Change Energy Storage Technology in Construction and Buildings Materials

Article Preview

Abstract:

The purpose of this paper is to introduce the progress of phase change (PCM) technology in construction and building materials. The function, classification and application of phase change energy storage materials were reviewed. PCMs can be used in construction and building materials for energy-saving purposes, such as coatings, gypsum board, mortar, concrete etc. The existing problems of phase change energy storage materials, current research topics were put forward. It probable that phase change energy storage materials will find wide application in construction and building materials in the near future.
