A shape-stabilised n-octadecane/activated carbon nanocomposite was successfully prepared using a one-step impregnation method. Activated carbon (AC) was used as an inorganic framework material, and n-octadecane was used as a phase change material (PCM) for thermal energy storage. The mass loading pe...
