MIT researchers have demonstrated a new way to store unused heat from car engines, industrial machinery, and even sunshine until it's needed. Central to their system is what the researchers refer to ...

Heating and cooling systems are some of the biggest energy guzzlers in use, so passive temperature control could be a good way to reduce emissions. Phase-change materials (PCMs) show promise for this, ...

Researchers in Iran have tested four different two-layer PCMs across several cooling system configurations and have found that the payback time of the proposed cooling tech is still far from reaching ...

Textile engineers have developed a fabric woven out of ultra-fine nano-threads made in part of phase-change materials and other advanced substances that combine to produce a fabric that can respond to ...

A new technical paper titled “Phase-Change Memory for In-Memory Computing” was published by researchers at IBM Research-Europe. “We review the current state of phase-change materials, PCM device ...

ARCI develops spinel nanocomposite PCM boosting thermal battery efficiency by 45%, enabling compact, cost‑effective clean energy storage systems.
