Abstract

In order to obtain suitable phase change materials and phase transition temperature, a series of organic composite phase change materials were prepared with decanoic acid (CA), louric acid(LA), myristic acid (MA), palmitic acid (PA), stearic acid (SA) and 1-dodecanol (DE), tetradecanol (TD) as raw materials. The phase transition characteristics of the PCMs were measured through the method of cooling curves. Experimental results showed that organic composites phase change materials existed eutectic temperature. The eutectic temperature of the mixture of LA and SA was 30.6 . The eutectic temperature of the acid-acid-acid ternary system was slightly lower than that of the binary system. The eutectic temperature of the acid - alcohol binary system was the lowest among the three kinds of composites phase change materials, which was 23.1 . DE could reduce the crystallization temperature of CA as an additive.
