This work focuses on the encapsulation of two organic phase change materials (PCMs), hexadecane and octadecane, through the formation of nanocapsules of the conducting polymer poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) obtained by oxidative polymerization in miniemulsion. The energy storage capacity of nanoparticles is studied by preparing polymer films on supporting substrates. The results indicate that the prepared systems can store and later release thermal energy in the form of latent heat efficiently, which is of vital importance to increase the efficiency of future thermoelectric devices.
这项工作聚焦于通过在微乳液中进行氧化聚合获得导电聚合物聚（3,4-乙撑二氧噻吩）（PEDOT）的纳米胶囊，来封装两种有机相变材料（PCM），十六烷和十八烷。通过在支撑基板上制备聚合物薄膜来研究纳米颗粒的储能能力。结果表明，所制备的系统能够有效地以潜热形式存储并随后释放热能，这对于提高未来热电装置的效率至关重要。
