This invention discloses an encapsulation and molding technology for inorganic solid-liquid phase change materials. It enhances the photothermal conversion capability of inorganic hydrated salts through a two-stage encapsulation and molding process using a porous support material at the micro-pore stage, followed by shaping and a two-stage macro-encapsulation and molding process using commercial sealant and carbon materials. This two-stage encapsulation method plays a crucial role in maintaining the shape stability of the inorganic hydrated salt phase change material, resulting in a composite phase change material with a certain photothermal conversion capability. This multi-stage encapsulation and molding method is very simple, using low-cost porous matrix and commercial adhesives. It is highly effective in solving the problems of liquid leakage and thermal instability in inorganic hydrated salt phase change materials and can be extended to the multi-stage encapsulation and molding of other inorganic hydrated salt phase change materials. This simple, inexpensive, and efficient method will facilitate the application of inorganic hydrated salt phase change materials in practical applications.

The application relates to a low-temperature concentration method for reducing crystallization entrainment. The low-temperature concentration method for reducing crystallization entrainment described in the application introduces small-molecule gas to form hydrate crystal nuclei or small crystals to serve as the crystal seeds of the freeze concentration before the stage of the freeze concentration crystallization phase change, can reduce the freeze concentration crystallization supercooling degree, and promotes the freeze concentration to occur. In the stage of the freeze concentration phase change, the gas is continuously introduced to enhance the heat transfer, increase the nucleation points, promote the crystallization to occur, form more small ice crystals, effectively reduce the generation of large ice crystals, and reduce the entrainment rate. Compared with single freeze concentration, the low-temperature concentration method for reducing crystallization entrainment adopting the embodiment of the application saves time by more than 10%, reduces the ice crystal entrainment rate by more than 10%, and improves the quality by more than 15%.
