Abstract. High-temperature phase change materials (PCMs) have broad application prospects in areas such as power peak shaving, waste heat recycling, and solar thermal power generation. They address the need for clean energy and improved energy efficiency, which complies with the global "carbon peak" and "carbon neutral" strategy
Phase-change materials (PCMs) are environmentally-friendly materials with the function of latent heat energy-storage. PCMs undergo phase transition over a narrow temperature range and it stores and releases a substantial amount of heat energy during the phase transition process ( Al-Yasiri and Szabo, 2022 ; Struhala and Ostrý,
Comprehensive lists of most possible materials that may be used for latent heat storage are shown in Fig. 1(a–e), as reported by Abhat [4].Readers who are interested in such information are referred to the papers of Lorsch et al.
