Thermal storage properties of lightweight concrete incorporating phase change materials with different fusion points in hybrid form for high temperature applications

In this study, the thermal storage properties of lightweight concrete incorporating two types of phase change materials (PCM) with two different fusion points were investigated. Two types of PCM, polyethylene glycol (PEG) and paraffin (PRF), were impregnated into porous aggregates using high tempera...
