Phase Change Materials in Sustainable Construction

Abstract

The paper on the use of Phase Change Materials in building construction has been a recent development and a keen interest of the researchers have been demonstrated in this regards. Furthermore, there is ongoing research regarding the various applications of PCM. It may be stated in this context that this research project focuses on the types of PCMs used in the building construction industry. In addition to that, this paper provides a significant insight into the methods or techniques employed for integrating or mixing thee PCM with the concrete or other building material. Moreover, the advantages and the limitations of using PCM as a significant building construction material have been evaluated through this…
