[0023] The phase change energy storage material prepared by this invention combines bimetallic hydroxide and phase change wax for the first time. Bimetallic hydroxide exhibits a reversible phase change process, with water molecules in its interlayers undergoing desorption and adsorption upon temperature changes. Furthermore, as an ionic compound, bimetallic hydroxide's ionic bonds can break and synthesize, enabling a reversible phase change process. Simultaneously, bimetallic hydroxide provides structural support to the phase change wax, reducing its high-temperature flow problem. The phase change wax compensates for any potential deficiency in the latent heat of phase change of bimetallic hydroxide, enhancing the overall energy storage capacity. The combination of these two components flexibly broadens the overall phase change temperature range of the composite phase change material. Moreover, bimetallic hydroxide retains its layered structure after multiple heating-cooling cycles, effectively maintaining the reversible desorption and adsorption processes of water molecules in the interlayers. This provides structural stability to the phase change wax, reducing performance degradation caused by changes in molecular chain structure during repeated cycles. Therefore, the overall cycle stability of the composite phase change energy storage material is improved, extending its service life.

[0024] The phase change energy storage material prepared by this invention, in order to ensure the high efficiency and conversion efficiency of the phase change energy storage material, introduces Si-C supported CuS nanosheets, which can transfer energy to bimetallic hydroxide and phase change wax under light or heat conditions, and realize energy storage through the phase change of the material; at the same time, the smaller the size of the synthesized CuS nanosheets, the larger their specific surface area and the higher the proportion of surface atoms, providing more active sites for Si-C loading and improving the overall thermal conductivity of the material.

[0091] The specific performance analysis of the prepared phase change energy storage material is as follows:

[0092] in Figure 2 The phase spectrum of ZnAl-LDH is obtained by...

Figure 3 It can be seen that the diffraction peaks of CuS at 2θ of 29.27°, 31.78°, 32.85° and 47.94° correspond to CuS-JCPDS, respectively. # The 102, 103, 006, and 110 crystal planes of 06-0464 indicate that CuS was successfully prepared; the phase spectra of the above materials do not show any other impurity peaks, indicating that the prepared materials have high purity. Figure 4 The CuS SEM image shows a uniform nanosheet structure, which provides more active sites for SiC loading. Figure 5 The TEM image of SiC-CuS shows that the two materials are closely bonded, indicating that SiC was successfully loaded onto the CuS surface. Figure 6 The image shows a high-resolution test pattern of SiC-CuS, where D=0.282nm corresponds to the 103 crystal plane of CuS, further indicating that SiC-CuS was successfully prepared. Figure 7 The graph shows the light absorption performance of SiC-CuS. It can be seen that the loading of SiC causes a blue shift in the light absorption performance of CuS, which improves the light absorption of CuS in the visible light range.
