Abstract

Organic phase change materials is an important branch of phase change materials. Its main drawback is lower thermal conductivity. It has greatly restricted the application. The general method is using the composite method to enhance the thermal conductivity of the system, such as the addition of nanoparticles, micro-encapsulation, porous matrix adsorption, etc. In this review, the technique, process, raw materials, mechanism and existing problems of organic phase change materials are presented, and the future research and development direction are prospected.
