This latent heat can store a significant amount of energy in a material over a relatively small temperature change. This latent heat exists in solid-to-liquid phase changes as well, where it’s ...

An animation illustrating "ionocaloric cooling." Adding ions to the phase-change material causes it to melt and absorb heat, while removing the ions causes it to crystalize into a solid and ...

You're most likely to come across Phase Change Material (PCM) and GlacioTex when you're shopping for a cooling mattress, and in some instances luxury cooling bedding, toppers and pillows.

When temperature or pressure is applied to a material, its state changes from liquid to solid or remains solid but exhibits structural changes. This change is called a phase transition or change.

The map shown in Fig. 2 hence represents a conceptual framework to understand, discuss and optimize phase-change material properties on the basis of their stoichiometry. Beyond essential ...

New material offers more durable, sustainable multi-level non-volatile phase change memory. ScienceDaily . Retrieved June 2, 2025 from www.sciencedaily.com / releases / 2023 / 09 / 230906112424.htm ...

The secret to the concrete’s warming is low-temperature liquid paraffin, which is a phase-change material, meaning it releases heat when it turns from its room-temperature state — as a liquid — to a ...

The result will be important when making phase-change memories from GeSbTe alloys and related PCMs in the future. PCMs can be reversibly switched between their glassy and crystalline states by ...

Fabral's Phase Change Material is an optimal insulation solution, that easily integrates with Fabral's metal roof and wall systems. This product increases the thermal mass of a building ...
