In addition, the PGAMF composite film with high ACNTs-PCMC microcapsule contents can store more thermal energy, which requires a longer time to store thermal energy generated by solar-to-heat conversion.
The incorporation of nanomaterials into thin film nanocomposites (TFNs) has emerged as a promising approach to enhance the efficiency of solar cells and water treatment technologies. The present essay will offer a comprehensive review of the relevant literature on this topic.
Flexible yet durable polyimide substrate enhances flexibility, paper thinness, and lighter weight. The substrate is as thin as 1mil (0.025mm) thick. Amorphous silicon is the absorber layer in the solar panels. The amount of silicon used in PowerFilm solar panels is as low as 1 percent of the amount used in traditional solar panels.
In addition to photothermal conversion and flexibility, the heat storage capacity and thermal conductivity of solar-driven composite phase change films are equally important for personal thermal management effects.
In this work, we introduce a series of multifunctional composite films for solar-driven thermal management and storage by spreading the PVA/graphene/ACNTs-PCMC mixture on a flat
