Summary: The usage of thermo-regulative phase change material (PCM) doped polyurethane (PU) foam (PU-PCM) as a building component in cold storage can help in reducing cooling load and promoting electricity saving. The synthesis methods, optimization of components, performance evaluation, and future research scope of PU-PCM are discussed in this review. Encapsulated PCM (EPCM) with organic-inorganic hybrid shell and paraffinic core in the temperature range of -10 to 15 degrees Celsius is found to be a suitable option due to its thermal reliability, adhesion to PU matrix, and thermal conductivity balance.

Summary: A nanoarray-modified nickel foam was fabricated as a supporting material for polyethylene glycol (PEG) to prepare a form-stable phase change material (PCM). The nanoarrays on the nickel foam acted as nucleating agents, resulting in heterogeneous nucleation of the material. The resulting nanoarray-modified nickel foam-supported PCM (NAPCM) exhibited high latent heat values, thermal conductivity, and potential for thermal energy utilization.

Summary: Shape-stable phase change materials (SSPCMs) were synthesized using a polyurethane network containing Diels-Alder bonds as the enclosure compound to obtain the encapsulation of polyethylene glycol (PEG). The SSPCMs-3 sample (300 wt % PEG) showed the best comprehensive performance with an enthalpy value of 171.7 J/g and no leakage at 80 degrees C for 1 h. Furthermore, the structure, crystallization behavior, and phase transition ability of SSPCMs remained unchanged after multiple thermal cycling and reprocessing.

Summary: Multi-telechelic polyethylene glycol (PEG)-based multimers with multiple reactive groups at both ends of the molecular chains are used to prepare solid-solid phase change materials (PCMs) networks with enhanced mechanical strength and shape stability. The structure of the multimers can be adjusted to control the properties of the PCMs, such as the number of PEG-derived structural units and the functionality of curing agents. Compared to conventional PCMs, the multi-telechelic PEG-based PCMs show significant improvements in storage modulus and latent heat, and they also possess shape and thermal stability as well as reprocessability.

Summary: This project focused on a new material design for continuous release of chemotherapeutic drugs in cancer treatment. The study developed a system for sustained release and investigated the release profiles of Paclitaxel (PTX). The results showed that the grafted surface of polylactic acid (PLA) nanofibers with poly (methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine) (PMPC) improved the loading efficiency of PTX. The nanofiber mats exhibited good biocompatibility and were non-toxic when releasing drugs in vivo.
