Abstract

Eutectic compositions of hydrated magnesium nitrate and either or both of sodium and potassium nitrate, as shown in the figure, are described and are useful as reversible liquid/solid phase change materials.

Claims

AMENDED CLAIMS [received by the International Bureau on 15 July 1997 (15.07.97); original claims 1,4, 5, 8,11,12 and 15 amended; new claims 22-24 added, remaining claims unchanged (4 pages)]
1. A reversible liquid/solid phase change
composition comprising a substantially eutectic binary mixture of magnesium nitrate hexahydrate and sodium nitrate.
2. The composition of claim 1 wherein said binary mixture is comprised of about 6 to about 9 weight percent sodium nitrate and about 91 to about 94 weight percent hydrated magnesium nitrate.
3. The composition of claim 2 which has a melting point of about 83ºC.
4. The composition of claim 1 and also comprising a nucleator, said composition having an average
supercooling of about 2ºC or less.
5. The composition of claim 2 and also comprising a nucleator, said composition having an average
supercooling of about. 2ºC or less.
6. This composition of claim 4 wherein said nucleator is magnesium hydroxide.
7. The composition of claim 5 wherein said nucleator is magnesium hydroxido.
8. A reversible liquid/solid phase change
composition comprising a substantially euteclic binary mixture of magnesium nitrate hexahydrate and potassium nitrate.
9. The composition of claim 8 wherein said binary mixture is comprised of about 24 to about 26 weight percent potassium nitrate and about 74 to about 76 weight percent hydrated magnesium nitrate.
10. The composi tion of claim 9 which has a meltlng point of about. 77°C.
11. The composition of claim 8 and also comprising a nucleator, said composition having an average
supercooling of about 2ºC or less.
12. The composition of claim 9 and also comprising a nucleator, sa id composition having a n average
supercooIing of about 2ºC or less.
13. The composition of claim 11 wherein said
nucleator is magnesium hydroxide.
14. The composition of claim 12 wherein said
nucleator is magnesium hydroxide.
15. A reversible Iiquid /solid phase change
composition comprising a substantially eutectic ternary mixture of magnesium nitrate hexahydrate, sodium nitrate, and potassium nitrato.
16. The composition of claim 1 wherein said ternary mixtυre is comprised of about 6 to about 8 weight percent sodium nltrate. about 23 to about 26 weight percent potassium nitrate and about 67 to about 71 weight percent. hydrated magnesium nitrate.
17. The composition of claim 16 which has a melting point of about 65 ºC.
18. The composition of claim 15 and also comprising a nucleator.
19. The composition of claim 16 and also comprising a nucleator.
20. The composition of claim 18 wherein said
nucleator is magnesium hydroxide.
21. The composition of claim 19 wherein said
nucleator is magnesium hydroxide.
22 . A method for storing and releasing thermal energy, comprising
charging a reversible liquid/solid phase change composition according to claim 1 with thermal energy, said charging including bringing said composition to a temperature above about 83ºC so as to melt said
composition; and,
thereafter allowing said composition to release thermal energy.
23. A method for storing and releasing thermal energy, comprising:
charging a reversible liquid/solid phase change composition according to claim 8 with thermal energy, said charging including bringing said composition to a temperature above about 71ºC so as to melt said composition; and,
thereafter allowing said composition to release thermal energy.
24. A method for storing and releasing thermal energy, comprising:
charging a reversible liquid/solid phase change composition according to claim 15 with thermal energy, said charging including bringing said composition to a temperature above about 65°C so as to melt said composition; and,
thereafter allowing said composition to release thermal energy.
