Degree of crystallinity (DOC) of the NC-MicroPCMs was evaluated by the differential scanning calorimeter (DSC). The effectiveness of some processing variables, in terms of formaldehyde and melamine molar ratio F/M, weight ratio of core and shell material C/S, and the dosage of silver nano particles D(%), were analyzed statistically. It was found that: (1) DOC was dependent on these processing variables; (2) doping silver nano particles was beneficial to the formation of shell crystallite structure; and (3) higher F/M was helpful in getting a higher DOC for both NC-MicroPCMs and MicroPCMs. Also, DOC was found to be associated with thermal stability and the two features were confirmed, which showed a closely positive correlation.展开更多
