Abstract Phase change materials (PCMs) can store large amounts of energy in latent heat and release it during phase
changes, which could be used to improve the freeze-thaw performance of soil. The composite phase change material was prepared with paraffin as the PCM and 8% Class C fly ash (CFA) as the supporting material. Laboratory
tests were conducted to reveal the influence of phase change paraffin composite Class C fly ash (CFA-PCM) on
the thermal properties, volume changes and mechanical properties of expansive soil. The results show that PCM
failed to establish a good improvement effect… More >
