In this study, paraffin/reduced graphene oxide (rGO) composites were fabricated by simple and environmentally friendly method. rGO filled with paraffin enhanced thermal properties of paraffin, which has low thermal conductivity (~0.2W/m∙K). Paraffin/rGO composites were characterized by SEM, DSC, TGA, PPMS with different weight fraction of rGO in composite. Results indicate that when increasing weight fraction of rGO, thermal conductivity and stability also increased while there was no decrease in heat of fusion because of low fraction of rGO. Paraffin/rGO composite can be a good candidate for latent heat storage with enhanced thermal properties which can be utilized in even harsher environment. |
