AbstractThe risk of leakage and low thermal conductivity severely hinder the wide application of phase change materials (PCMs). In this work, the high-density polyethylene/carbon nanotubes (HDPE/CNTs) porous scaffolds were successfully fabricated via a sacrificial template method followed by the general melt blending and water solvent etching. Subsequently, a series of paraffin wax HDPE/CNTs/PW composite PCMs were obtained combined with the simple vacuum impregnation method. The obtained HDPE/CNTs porous scaffolds can effectively avoid the leakage of PW, meanwhile, the thermal conductivity and electrical conductivity of HDPE/CNTs/PW-3:7 are increased by 2.94 times and 13 orders of magnitude compared with the HDPE/PW-3:7 respectively, also, it exhibits high phase change enthalpy (153.95 J/g for melting enthalpy and 152.82 J/g for crystallization enthalpy). From the above perspectives, the HDPE/CNTs/PW-3:7 has promising potential value in the application of light-to-thermal conversion, electro-to-thermal conversion and thermal energy storage.
泄漏風(fēng)險(xiǎn)和低導(dǎo)熱率嚴(yán)重阻礙了有機(jī)相變材料的廣泛應(yīng)用。本研究結(jié)合犧牲模板法、熔融共混法和水溶劑蝕刻法成功制備得到高密度聚乙烯(HDPE)/碳納米管(CNTs)多孔骨架。隨后,采用簡(jiǎn)單的真空浸漬法制備得到一系列HDPE/CNTs/石蠟(PW)復(fù)合相變材料。所得HDPE/CNTs多孔支架可有效避免PW的泄漏,且與HDPE/PW-3:7相比,HDPE/CNTs/PW-3:7的熱導(dǎo)率和電導(dǎo)率分別提高了2.94倍和13個(gè)數(shù)量級(jí),同時(shí),該復(fù)合相變材料還具有較高的相變焓(熔化焓為153.95 J/g,結(jié)晶焓為152.82 J/g)。綜上所述,HDPE/CNTs/PW-3:7在光熱轉(zhuǎn)換、電熱轉(zhuǎn)換及熱能存儲(chǔ)等領(lǐng)域具有廣闊的應(yīng)用前景。
