Özet

In this study, decanoic acid suitable for thermal energy storage applicationswas microencapsulated with poly(styrene-co-ethyl acrylate) by emulsion copolymerizationmethod. Chemical structures, morphological characteristics, andthermal properties of microcapsules and macrocapsules were determined usingFourier Transfer Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR), Scanning Electron Microscopy(SEM), and Differential Scanning Calorimeters (DSC) respectively. The microPCMsand macroPCMs were synthesized successfully and the encapsulation ratio wasabout up to 65.5 %. As a result, the as-prepared microcapsules show good potentialsfor thermal energy storage and could be used in many applications. © Springer International Publishing Switzerland 2015.
