Talk:Phase Change Material

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Surely the most comonly used phase change material is ice, not "most commonly used PCMs are salt hydrates"; particularly since ice is now reasonably commonly used in building air handling to both shift load (cooler at night, power is cheaper) and reduce the size required for the chillers.

Meanwhile, as illustrated here some wonderful edge cases in PCM usage; for example microencapsulated and use as a coating in clothing
