The Effect of Phase Change Materials on the Physical, Thermal and Mechanical Properties of Cement

Abstract: When focusing on materials science in civil engineering, the current trend is to investigate the use of innovative solutions in order to enhance thermal and energy performances. This trend is amplified with the need for a sustainable development strategy for the construction sector. This paper assesses the integration of a Phase Change Material (PCM) in cement intended for building construction. The key characteristic of PCMs is their capacity to absorb energy and restore it. In building construction, this fea… Show more

“…The measuring instrument was the Fox-200. The optimal delta of temperature between the plates (lower and upper) suggested by manufacture is 20 °C [ 33 , 34 ], according to [ 32 ] standard for steady-state measurements, and the arithmetic mean of temperature (T1 + T2)/2 was adopted as the repetitive temperature for measuring thermal conductivity.…”

“…Portland cement is the adhesive utilized most frequently in concrete mixtures. It is produced by the combustion of limestone (CaCO 3 ), silica sand (SiO 2 ), clay (Al 2 O 3 ), and iron oxide (Fe 2 O 3 ) at room temperature, which is extremely high at 1400 o C to 1500 o C for fossil fuels [3,4,13,[5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12].…”
