In this study, inorganic hydrated salt Na2HPO4 & BULL;12H(2)O with a high enthalpy value and Na2SiO3 & BULL;9H(2)O were respectively selected as phase change material (PCM) and nucleating agent to obtain a modified PCM (modified-PCM). Then, by introducing the modified-PCM into expanded perlite (EP), a shape stable phase change material (DHPD-EP SSPCM) was prepared. Combined with the results of the leakage test and DSC, it was determined that the best adsorption rate of EP for the modified-PCM was 58wt %. SEM and N-2 adsorption-desorption experiments showed that modified-PCM was adsorbed in the...
