Popis: | Most of the installed phase change material in buildings is expensive microencapsulated paraffin, which is flammable. Salt hydrates are corrosive and hygroscopic but cheap. A suitable salt hydrate encapsulation material would be of great interest to the construction industry. Thus, macroencapsulation can be a possible and cheap opportunity. Therefore, different methods to macroencapsulate phase change material, consisting of 50 wt% MgCl2 × 6H2O and 50 wt% CaCl2 × 6H2O, were investigated. The investigation results show that the foils with a layer of aluminum or polyvinylidene chloride and liquid spar varnish with additives (mica, graphite, glass flakes) are suitable materials. Furthermore, liquid rubber (Noxyde®), liquid EPDM (ethylene propylene diene (M-class)) and liquid polyvinylidene chloride as well as butyl rubber as extruded tape, malleable modelling clay or injectable mass were tested. These materials are also usable, whereas liquid two-component polysulfide and other foils are not suitable. In conclusion, the supplier can decide to use foils or liquid materials based on the application, the construction material and the price. |
