This study aims to develop leak-free phase change material (PCM)-aggregates through a two-step pelletization process. Microencapsulated PCM (mPCM) was incorporated into the core of the aggregate during the granulation process and then coated with a PCM-free shell to overcome the PCM leakage. The the...
