Biodegradable PEO/cellulose‐based solid–solid phase change materials
Tóm tắt
A series of poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) blends with cellulose (CEL) or cellulose derivatives—carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), cellulose acetate (CAC), and cellulose ether (CET)—has been investigated as phase change materials for thermal energy storage. For PEO/CEL blends solid–solid phase transition has been observed in the whole concentration's range; for PEO/CMC and PEO/CET blends solid–solid phase transition has been found for PEO content 25 or 50 and 25 wt%, respectively. Otherwise, solid–liquid phase transition takes place. MTDSC investigations revealed that for PEO/CEL and PEO/CMC blends transition the strongest recrystallization effect (as evidenced by exothermic effect in reversing heat flow) as melting process occurred. FTIR analysis shows a shift of the stretching vibration bands of both the proton‐donor OH groups from CEL and PEO due to intermolecular hydrogen interactions between the blends' components.
