The use of nonwoven textile substrates for filtration and absorption purposes is generalized due to the high surface area they can provide. Many of these applications require good wetting properties to increase efficiency. ...
[EN] In this work, microencapsulated phase change materials (PCMs) with a melting temperature of 52 °C have been used to improve thermal inertia phenomena on an elastomeric matrix of styrene-ethylene/butylene-styrene (SEBS) ...
