Dodecanoic acid as a promising phase-change material for thermal energy storage

The melting transition of dodecanoic acid (CH3(CH2)10COOH, also known as lauric acid) has been examined with a view to use for latent heat energy storage in solar thermal applications. The influence of purity (reagent grade [98% pure] compared with practical grade [
