Deviceful LiCl salt hydrate confinement into a macroporous silicone foam for low-temperature heat storage application

LiCl is a well-investigated salt hydrate for low-temperature thermal energy storage due to its high energy storage density (∼1250 Wh/kg), which, however, suffers from deliquescence. Its hygroscopicity induces relevant issues during hydration/dehydration cycles due to water vapor mass transfer, swell...
