Several disadvantages of PCM use in the given application have been identified and include; super cooling, low thermal conductivity, phase segregation, fire safety, and cost. The issues caused by super cooling and phase segregation lead to thermal cycling degradation, limiting the useful lifecycle of...
However, some of its traditional aggregates release a lot of carbon dioxide to the environment during production. In broadening the use of concrete as internal household design like countertops, exploiting the potentials of crushed waste glass as a substitute for the carbon dioxide emitting aggregate...
