Abstract

Concretes with a high thermal energy storage capacity were fabricated by mixing microencapsulated\nphase change materials (MPCM) into Portland cement concrete (PCC) and geopolymer concrete (GPC).\nThe effect of MPCM on thermal performance and compressive strength of PCC and GPC were investigated. It...
