PCMs have been investigated for applications as building materials to store solar energy, for cooling and heating in indoor environments and for energy efficiency.
“PCMs have been investigated for applications as building materials to store solar energy, for cooling and heating in indoor environments and for energy efficiency (Sharma et al. 2009; Zhou et al. 2012).”

Simple carbonization strategies with biomass materials are promising for optimizing the thermal performance of carbon-based composite PCMs and achieving economic and environmental protection.
“To optimize the thermal performance of carbon‐based composite PCMs and achieve the goal of economic and environmental protection,[ 54 , 78 , 139 , 140 ] simple carbonization strategies with biomass materials have shown promising results, as these materials can be transformed into PC materials.[ 78 , 141 , 142 ]”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
