We introduce new product and manufacturing concept for heating buildings. This product is based on the technologies existing in Industrial partner for fabrication of magnetic covers and expertise from University of Liverpool in manufacturing of thermal energy storage systems using phase-change materials (PCMs). Collaboration of project participants will open a market niche for covers withself-responding thermo-regulating ability, which reduce overall energy losses for the customers (both domestic and industrial) and smoothen energy consumption during high and low peak periods. The idea of the proposed project is based on the fundamental studies of energy capsules loaded with phase-change materials for storage and release of thermal energy developed under main ERC Consolidator grant "ENERCAPSULE". Different types of the capsule shell (polymeric, carbon-based, inorganic nanoparticles) loaded with nonflammable crystallohydrate PCMs were developed for effective storage of the thermal waste energy within the temperature range 20 - 200 0C and controlled energy transfer into/from energy container. The fundamental knowledge on encapsulation of the PCMs created a new platform for their application as thermal energy storage additives to different host materials. The final project goal is commercialisation of a new product for use in households, hospitals and other social, governmentaland industrial estates.

我们推出用于建筑供暖的新产品和制造理念。该产品基于工业合作伙伴现有的磁性盖制造技术以及利物浦大学在使用相变材料 (PCM) 制造热能存储系统方面的专业知识。项目参与者的合作将为具有自我响应温度调节能力的盖子打开一个市场利基，从而减少客户（家庭和工业）的整体能源损失，并平滑高低峰时段的能源消耗。拟议项目的想法基于对能量胶囊的基础研究，该能量胶囊装载有相变材料，用于储存和释放热能，该能量胶囊是在 ERC Consolidator 主要拨款“ENERCAPSULE”下开发的。开发了装载有不可燃结晶水合物 PCM 的不同类型的胶囊壳（聚合物、碳基、无机纳米颗粒），用于在 20 - 200 0C 的温度范围内有效储存热废能，并控制能量传入/传出能量容器。有关相变材料封装的基础知识为其作为不同主体材料的热能存储添加剂的应用创建了一个新平台。最终项目目标是将新产品商业化，供家庭、医院和其他社会、政府和工业场所使用。
