Leakage Proof, Flame-Retardant, and Electromagnetic Shield Wood Morphology Genetic Composite Phase Change Materials for Solar Thermal Energy Harvesting
Abstract
Highlights An innovative class of versatile form-stable composite phase change materials (CPCMs) was fruitfully exploited, featuring MXene/phytic acid hybrid depositing on non-carbonized wood as a robust support. The wood-based CPCMs showcase enhanced thermal conductivity of 0.82 W m−1 K−1 (4.6 times than polyethylene glycol) as well as high latent heat of 135.5 kJ kg−1 (91.5% encapsulation) with thermal durability and stability throughout at least 200 heating and cooling cycles. The wood-based CPCMs have good solar-thermal-electricity conversion, flame-retardant, and electromagnetic shielding properties.
