Abstract
In this paper, the composite phase change materials for insulation were prepared by melt-soaking method. Trimethylolethane (PG) was chosen to be the phase change material (PCM) and two kinds of porous materials as the supporting matrices separately. The effects of both matrices to PG were analyzed by X-ray diffraction (XRD), and the heat insulation properties of composites were evaluated by Plat heat insulation test device. At last, microstructures of composites were observed by scanning electron microscope (SEM) and their effects to composites were discussed.
