Özet:
The demand for sustainable, low-energy buildings with minimized operating costs is
increasing. Meeting this ever increasing demand while providing sufficient occupant
thermal comfort is a challenge. In the recent years, solutions that try to utilize the
thermal energy storage potential of the building envelope are being developed at a
rapid pace. Combining the high storage capacity of micro-encapsulated phase change
materials (mPCM) with high thermal conductivity waste materials lead to
sustainable, low-carbon and low-cost composites. This research is intended to
measure and analyze the mechanical, microstructural, and thermophysical properties
of different types of mPCM incorporated geopolymer composites for building
envelope applications. Several types of locally available waste materials with
varying chemical compositions will be prepared with PCMs with melting point of
24℃. Furthermore, nano-SiO2, nano-TiO2, and graphite platelets were added in
order to enhance the mechanical and thermal properties of the mPCM/geopolymer
composites. The experiment results showed that geopolymer composites with
vi
enhanced thermal and sufficient mechanical properties were developed by
incorporating nanoparticles and graphite platelets into the geopolymer matrix.
