An Efficient Environmentally Friendly Composite Material Based on Carbonized Biological Cellulose/Paraffin: Thermal and Sustainable Properties Analysis
Abstract:A shape-stabilized composite phase change material (SS-CPCM) with paraffin (PA) and biological porous carbon (BPC) was prepared. Freeze-dried biological-cellulose include abandoned pomelo peel (APP) and tangerine peel (ATP) were carbonized in vacuum at 800°C to obtain BPC to be used as a matrix material to prevent PA leakage and enhance thermal conductivity. A vacuum impregnation process was utilized to obtain the SS-CPCM. Scanning electron microscopy showed that BPC (carbonized APP is subsequently referred to… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
