To improve the utilization efficiency of renewable energy and adaptability of composite materials, a new mineral-based composite phase change material (Ag-Mica/CNF/PW) was designed and prepared by chemically modifying natural mica, attaching silver nanoparticles to the mica surface as functionalized support material, and using paraffin wax as the phase change functional medium. As expected, the thermal conductivity of the composite phase change material (CPCMs) increased significantly to 0.9 W/m k, which was 330.1% higher relative to pure paraffin. With the addition of silver-modified mica, th...
