Investigation of thermal performance and chemical stability of graphene enhanced phase change material for thermal energy storage

Phase change materials (PCMs) have received widespread thermal energy storage (TES) and release properties due to their unique characteristics. However, the PCMs suffer from poor thermal conductivity, resulting in the least thermal performance and heat transfer characteristics. This research focused...
