Abstract:Waste heat and organic contaminants are significant issues in water pollution, which has caused ecological problems and threatened human health. To provide an effective solution for wastewater recovery, we designed a novel type of multifunctional phase-change microcapsule. This type of microcapsule was synthesized using n-docosane as a core and a SiO2/Fe3O4 composite as a base shell through in situ interfacial polycondensation with the assistance of a Fe3O4 nanoparticle as a Pickering emulsion stabilizer, foll… Show more
