Technical Field

Background
The ionic liquid is a salt which is composed of organic cation and inorganic or organic anion and is liquid at room temperature or near room temperature. Compared with the traditional phase change energy storage material, the ionic liquid as the phase change energy storage material has the following advantages: (1) the melting point of the ionic liquid has strong designability, and corresponding structural adjustment can be made according to the target phase transition temperature; (2) the organic energy storage material has good thermal stability and higher decomposition temperature, is higher than the prior organic energy storage material, can not be decomposed or generate other changes after being subjected to multiple phase change cycles, and is suitable for being used as a heat storage material of a high-grade heat source; (3) the pH is controllable, and the excellent pH adjustability of the ionic liquid is beneficial to forming a multi-component system with other substances with higher requirements on the pH environment; (4) the density of the ionic liquid is stable and easy to adjust, and the density of the ionic liquid is stable in different environments and is not influenced by factors such as temperature, humidity and the like. (5) The hydrophilicity and hydrophobicity are adjustable, and an oil-in-water or water-in-oil system can be formed according to the microcapsule preparation method. Therefore, the wide liquid range, large heat capacity and excellent thermal and chemical stability of the ionic liquid are one of the ideal media of the existing heat storage materials.
Because the phase change process of the ionic liquid is easily influenced by impurities (such as water, absorbed gas and the like), the development of a functional material which not only has the phase change advantage of the ionic liquid but also can improve the phase change stability of the ionic liquid has important significance for the application of the ionic liquid in the aspect of heat storage. The ionic liquid phase-change microcapsule technology is characterized in that the microcapsule technology is applied to the preparation of ionic liquid phase-change materials, phase-change ionic liquid is sealed in spherical capsules, the phase-change advantage of the ionic liquid is kept, the loss of the ionic liquid is prevented, and the problem of phase-change stability of the ionic liquid is solved, so that the application performance of the ionic liquid phase-change materials is improved, and the application field of the phase-change heat storage technology is widened.
