Researchers scientists have unlocked a new realm of possibilities for non-volatile phase change memory, a type of electronic memory capable of retaining data even without power. Traditionally, ...

In recent years, the use of Phase Change Materials (PCMs) in thermal management systems (TMS) has garnered increased interest due to their high latent heat storage capacity, which enables effective ...

Researchers from Bangladesh and Australia have explored hybrid nano-phase change materials (HNPCMs) for PVT applications. They used paraffin wax as the phase-change material (PCM), incorporating ...

Heating and cooling systems are among the biggest guzzlers of energy, contributing to a vicious cycle of climate change that then drives higher use of heating and cooling. Now engineers at Berkeley ...

PCMs leverage the principle of latent heat to function effectively. During the phase transition process, a PCM absorbs a substantial amount of latent heat from its environment, cooling the area as it ...

A new type of phase-change concrete could completely revolutionize how we handle icy conditions. That's because the new concrete is capable of melting ice and snow, removing the need to use salt or ...

A significant milestone has been reached in the advancement of non-volatile phase change memory, a form of electronic memory capable of retaining data even when power is disconnected, in a material ...

The benefits of thermal interface materials. Comparing FR-4 laminate with insulated metal substrate (IMS) PCB. How phase-change TIMs may prove to be the best solution. One of the most important—and ...
