According to recent research from Tokat, Turkey, "This study focuses on the preparation and thermal properties of paraffin/expanded perlite composite as novel form-stable phase change material for latent heat thermal energy storage by vacuum impregnation method. The paraffin could be absorbed in pores of expanded perlite as much as 55 wt% without melted phase change material seepage from the composite and this mixture was described as form-stable composite phase change material."
"The melting and freezing temperatures and latent heats of form-stable composite phase change material were measured using differential scanning calorimetry analysis. The thermal cycling ...
