Slow and Steady Overall, the treated lightweight aggregate slab performed better at sustaining its heating — keeping the temperature above freezing for up to 10 hours — while the slab with ...

As a result, they demonstrated that the metastable phase was thermodynamically stable, identified the 3D structure of metastable-phase crystals, and suggested a new nanoparticle growth mechanism ...

Researchers scientists have unlocked a new realm of possibilities for non-volatile phase change memory, a type of electronic memory capable of retaining data even without power. Traditionally ...

An increasingly popular cooling mechanism in mattresses is phase change material (PCM), a substance that absorbs and releases heat to regulate your body temperature. Hot flushes and night sweats ...

They used paraffin wax as the phase-change material (PCM), incorporating various levels of aluminum oxide (Al₂O₃) and zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles. They also developed a prediction model.

During the phase change, the PCMs absorb or release large amounts of heat even as their temperature remains constant," explains Stefan Gschwander, a research scientist at Fraunhofer ISE.

In experiments, the system was quite effective – the material changed its temperature by 25 °C (45 °F) under as little as 0.22 volts, which is far greater than other phase-change cooling systems.

Phase Change Material (PCM) is a substance that helps regulate your sleep temperature by acting as an in-bed heat reservoir. In mattresses, PCM tends to be in wax or gel form.

Incorporating a phase-change material into concrete, this self-heating material can melt snow and ice for up to 10 hours without any help. The novel product could reduce the need for plowing and ...
