Review on thermal energy storage with phase change: materials, heat transfer analysis and applications (2003, background): “[157] proposed a graphite-compound-material, where the PCM is embedded inside a graphite matrix.”
Thermal conductivity and latent heat thermal energy storage characteristics of paraffin/expanded graphite composite as phase change material (2007, methodology): “reported that the paraffin with melting temperatures of 73– 80 C was loaded to the compressed expanded natural graphite (CENG) from 65 to 95 wt% depending on the bulk density of CENG [24].”
Energy storage and solidification of paraffin phase change material embedded with graphite nanofibers (2011, background): “[20] in which PCM impregnation percentage is a function of average pore radius, surface tension of the PCM in its liquid phase and viscosity of the PCM in its liquid phase.”
A critical review of thermal management models and solutions of lithium-ion batteries for the development of pure electric vehicles (2016, unknown): “25 W/mK for paraffin wax), many approaches towards making composite PCMs have been conducted and they include 1) embedding a metal matrix into PCM; 2) impregnating porous materials [183-187]; 3) adding high thermal conductivity substances in paraffin [188, 189]; and 4) developing latent heat thermal”
