Energy Design Resources: Eutectic Salts TES Systems. , but storage tanks contain eutectic salts as a medium instead of ice. Eutectic salts are a type of phase change material, with a higher freezing point temperature than water. The phase change material is encapsulated in plastic containers that are stacked in the storage tank as water is circulated around them. Eutectic salts have a freezing point of up of 47-48°F which means less energy is needed to create the phase change of the salts compared to ice.
Phase change materials store more cooling capacity than chilled water systems but less capacity than ice storage systems, putting its efficiency between chilled water storage systems and ice storage systems (eutectic salts store about 60 Btu/lb, compared to 1 Btu/lb for chilled water storage and 144 Btu/lb for ice storage). Basic Function of Eutectic Salts Storage Systems Eutectic salts storage is one type of Thermal Energy Storage (TES) technology. Benefits and Disadvantages of Eutectic Salts Systems Benefits Disadvantages.
PCM products. PureTemp phase change materials are designed to absorb and release large quantities of thermal energy at specific temperatures. Twenty-three PureTemp PCMs have been designated as 100 percent biobased by the U.S. Department of Agriculture's BioPreferred program. Our proprietary formulations and patented manufacturing processes yield superior results at cost-effective prices. See technical details on each PureTemp product. Key properties include: Heat energy storage capacities that average 200 J/g Over 200 unique phase change transition temperatures between -40° C and 151° C Consistent, repeatable performance over thousands of thermal (melt/solidify) cycles 100% renewable Produced from agricultural sources, not petroleum Readily biodegradable and nontoxic PureTemp phase change material is now available in macroencapsulated form.

ThermalCORE PCM Panel By National Gypsum. EcoCore Phase Change Panel by Tate. FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE JESSUP, MD, January 2012 EcoCore™ Panel offers energy-efficient perimeter heating and cooling solution Tate®, a market leader in the design, manufacture and distribution of raised access flooring and in-floor cooling solutions, introduced its new EcoCore Phase Change Panel during AHR 2012, Jan. 23-25, at the McCormick Place Convention Center in Chicago, Illinois.
Tate’s EcoCore Phase Change Panel incorporates the latest advances in micro-encapsulated phase change materials to reduce indoor air temperature fluctuations and save energy. During the peak solar load of the day, the phase change material embedded within the welded steel panel is designed to melt and absorb energy -- energy that would otherwise be reflected back into the room as heat or transferred to the air stream. This stored energy can be held within the panel until cold air during the off hours at night allows the phase change material to resolidify and release the absorbed heat back into the space. Construction materials range - Product information - Phase Change Materials - BASF Dispersions & Pigments. Cool-phase® ventilation system is Monodraught’s answer to mechanical air-conditioning systems (AC). Collaborating with the , BASF Ltd, and the Carbon Trust, Monodraught has created an extremely low energy, intelligent passive cooling and heat recovery system for use within Commercial, Academic and Health Care environments.
The main purpose of the Cool-phase® system is to provide powered fresh air ventilation, but with the added capability of storing and discharging large amounts of latent thermal energy. The system incorporates a micro-encapsulated phase change material (PCM) slurry, which utilizes latent thermal energy to allow for up to 4kWh of thermal storage, and supplying around 1kW of cooling at any one time. Designed for Zero Carbon Cool-phase® is a green alternative which helps to reduce a building’s carbon footprint. Link to the product.
