Abstract

The article presents selected results of the NRG--STORAGE project, aiming to develop ultralight foamed concrete with the addition of phase change material (PCM), which has the ability to store and release heat. The obtained results showed that the tested foamed concrete with a bulk density of 240 kg/m3 and with the addition of 10% PCM is characterised by sufficient mechanical strength for thermal insulation applications, good thermophysical properties, and the ability to accumulate and release heat.
