Advancing Thermal Energy Storage: Synthesis and Thermal Performance of Silica-Encapsulated Paraffin PCMs

This study successfully synthesizes SiO<sub>2</sub>-encapsulated nano-phase change materials (NPCMs) via a sol–gel method, using paraffin as the thermal storage medium. The encapsulation process is validated through FTIR, XRD, and XPS analyses, confirming the formation of an amorphous Si...
