Abstract

Phase change materials and traditional building materials can be combined into new building materials which have regenerative and thermostat function, it has a large energy density and heat absorbing approximately constant temperature and it can effectively maintain comfortable indoor environment and reduce building energy consumption and the cost of heating and cooling required. Taking the current building energy efficiency for consideration, this paper notes that the phase change energy storage technology is an important measure to achieve energy efficiency in buildings. On this basis, we summed up the classification, characterization and preparation of phase change materials and analysis the applications and problems of phase change materials in the field of building energy efficiency.
