To realize the efficient storage and conversion of solar energy by phase change materials (PCMs), low photothermal conversion efficiency and poor heat transfer performance remain great challenges. Herein, polyethylene glycol (PEG)-based composite PCMs with excellent photothermal conversion performance and exceptional thermal management capability were obtained by using boron nitride/copper oxide@multi-walled carbon nanotubes (BN/CuO@MWCNTs) as the thermal conductive and photothermal conversion enhancement fillers. The results indicate that owing to the bridging effect, the introduction of CuO and MWCNTs on the BN surface can construct additional heat transfer paths, resulting in a high thermal conductivity of up to 2.35 W/(m·K) for the as-prepared PEG/BN/CuO@MWCNTs composite, which is about 9-folds enhancement than pristine PEG. Simultaneously, the supercooling degree of PEG in PEG/BN/CuO@MWCNTs is effectively suppressed due to the synergistic nucleation effect of BN, CuO and MWCNTs. Additionally, the PEG/BN/CuO@MWCNTs composites not only exhibit a high latent-heat capacity of 154.5 J/g and a high photothermal conversion efficiency of 92.2 %, but also show favorable shape stability and durable reliability. This work offers a workable solution for the synergistic enhancement of photothermal conversion and thermal management, which can effectively promote the practical application in solar energy conversion and storage. |
