Microencapsulation of Paraffin with Poly (Urea Methacrylate) Shell for Solar Water Heater

Previous research has demonstred that microencapsulated phase change materials (MEPCMs) could significantly increase the energy storage density of solar thermal energy storage (TES) systems. Compared with traditional phase change materials (PCMs), MEPCMs have many advantages since they can limit the...
