[0026] The technical features of the present invention are further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0027] As shown in the figure, the present invention is a thermoplastic resin phase change material box heat exchange equipment, including a heat exchange box 1, and the outside of the heat exchange box 1 is wrapped with a thermal insulation layer.

[0028] The heat exchange box 1 has a fluid channel filled with a self-encapsulated phase-change energy storage material 3, the two ends of the fluid channel pass through the side wall of the heat exchange box 1 to form a pipe opening, and the middle of the fluid channel passes through the self-encapsulated phase-change energy storage material 3.

[0029] The fluid channel includes a first fluid channel 201 and a second fluid channel 202. The heat exchange box 1 has a plurality of stacked heat exchange plate groups 2. The heat exchange plate group 2 includes a first plate 203, a second plate 204, a third plate 205, and a fourth plate 206. A first fluid channel 201 is formed between the first plate 203 and the second plate 204. A second fluid channel 202 is formed between the third plate 205 and the fourth plate (206). The first fluid channels 201 of all heat exchange plate groups 2 are connected to form a hot flow channel, and both ends of the hot flow channel pass through the side wall of the heat exchange box 1 and form a hot flow pipe mouth. The second fluid channels 202 of all heat exchange plate groups 2 are connected to form a cold flow channel, and both ends of the cold flow channel pass through the side wall of the heat exchange box 1 and form a cold flow pipe mouth. The flow direction of the fluid in the first fluid channel 201 can be the same as or opposite to the flow direction of the fluid in the second fluid channel 202, and is adjusted according to the heat exchange energy storage requirements.

[0030] An energy storage material chamber is formed between the second plate 204 and the third plate 205 , and a self-encapsulated phase-change energy storage material 3 is formed in the energy storage material chamber.

[0031] The self-encapsulated phase change energy storage material 3 is a micro-encapsulated polymer with a core-shell structure, with a porous particle-based phase change energy storage material as the core material, a shell wrapped around the core, or the core is directly embedded in a uniform or non-uniform encapsulation material matrix. The shell material acts as a container-like function to prevent the phase change material from contacting the external environment.

[0032] The porous particle-based phase change energy storage material uses a particle-type porous material as a supporting material, and vacuum adsorbs the phase change material into the pores of the particle-type porous material. The phase change energy storage material and the thermoplastic resin are kneaded together through a certain technology to form a thermoplastic resin self-encapsulated fixed inorganic phase change energy storage material. The porous particle-based phase change energy storage material particles are embedded in the thermoplastic resin continuous phase as dispersed phase islands, that is, the porous particle-based phase change energy storage material particles are filled with a continuous phase of thermoplastic resin to form a self-encapsulated structure. During the phase change process, regardless of whether the phase change material is in a solid state or a liquid state, the appearance and shape are solid.

[0033] The self-encapsulated phase-change energy storage material 3 of the present application comprises a phase-change energy storage material 301, a thermoplastic resin 302 and a granular porous material 303. The self-encapsulated phase-change energy storage material 3 is formed by embedding the phase-change energy storage material 301 and the granular porous material 303 as dispersed phases in the continuous phase of the thermoplastic resin 302. The gaps between the phase-change energy storage material 301 and the granular porous material 303 are filled with the continuous phase of the thermoplastic resin 302.

[0034] Phase change energy storage material 301 is CaC l2 6H 2 O、NaSO 410H 2 O, NaCO 3 10H 2 O、Na 2 HPO 4 12H 2 O、Na 2 S 2 O 3 ·5H 2 O、Na(CH 3 COO)·3H 2 A type of O.

[0035] The granular porous material 303 is one or a mixture of multiple of activated carbon, expanded perlite, expanded graphite, expanded vermiculite or expanded vitrified microspheres.

[0036] The thermoplastic resin is low-density polyethylene, high-density polyethylene, polyvinyl chloride, polypropylene, polyolefin thermoplastic elastomer, ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer, polyphenylene sulfide or PC plastic. In this embodiment, the mass proportion of the phase change energy storage material 301 is 65-70%, the mass proportion of the granular porous material 303 is 9-11%, and the mass proportion of the thermoplastic resin is 20-25%. The self-encapsulated phase change energy storage material 3 is in seamless contact with the second plate 204 and the third plate 205. The self-encapsulated phase change energy storage material 3 presents a highly viscous mass-like plastic fluid at the processing temperature, and can be made into finished products of various shapes such as particles, balls, plates, blocks, etc. through extrusion and injection processes.

[0037] The self-encapsulated phase-change energy storage material 3 of the present application can be formed in the energy storage material chamber in the following manner.

[0038] Step 1: Heat and stir the phase change energy storage material in a reaction tank until it is completely melted.

[0039] Step 2: Add the granular porous material 303 into the kneader, start the kneader, stir at a speed of 100 rpm and gradually increase the temperature to 150° C.

[0040] The internal pressure of the kneader is reduced to -0.09 to -0.095 MPa, and the phase change energy storage material is put into the kneader and stirred for 10 min to 20 min until the phase change energy storage material is adsorbed by the granular porous material 303 to form porous granular-based phase change energy storage material particles.

[0041] Step 3: After the thermoplastic resin 302 is processed into a molten viscous state in a single-screw extruder, it is introduced into a kneader. During the feeding process of the thermoplastic resin, the kneader keeps stirring.

[0042] Step 4: Continue to raise the temperature in the kneading machine to the processing temperature, and continue stirring at a speed of 100 r / min for 10-20 minutes to fully knead the porous particle-based phase change energy storage material particles and the thermoplastic resin 302 to form a highly viscous mass mixture.

[0043] Step 5: The highly viscous mass mixture is introduced into a twin-screw forced feeder for mixing, and then injected under pressure into the energy storage material chamber for natural cooling and shaping.

[0044] Of course, the above description is not a limitation of the present invention, and the present invention is not limited to the above examples. Any changes, modifications, additions or substitutions made by ordinary technicians in this technical field within the essential scope of the present invention should fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
