Thermal Properties and the Prospects of Thermal Energy Storage of Mg–25%Cu–15%Zn Eutectic Alloy as Phase Change Material

This study focuses on the characterization of eutectic alloy, Mg–25%Cu–15%Zn with a phase change temperature of 452.6 °C, as a phase change material (PCM) for thermal energy storage (TES). The phase composition, microstructure, phase change temperature and enthalpy of the alloy were investigated aft...
