Morphological and Structural Evaluation of Hydration/Dehydration Stages of MgSO<sub>4</sub> Filled Composite Silicone Foam for Thermal Energy Storage Applications

Morphological and Structural Evaluation of Hydration/Dehydration Stages of MgSO<sub>4</sub> Filled Composite Silicone Foam for Thermal Energy Storage Applications

Salt hydrates, such as MgSO<sub>4</sub>∙7H<sub>2</sub>O, are considered attractive materials for thermal energy storage, thanks to their high theoretical storage density. However, pure salt hydrates present some challenges in real application due to agglomeration, corrosion a...
