Description
Due to global warming and the high global demand for energy, the research and development of sustainable
energy storage systems is of great interest. The photoswitchable phase change material 4-methoxyazobenzene
(4-MeO-Azo) allows simultaneous storage of two different forms of energy which can be
released after an external trigger, shown in Fig. [1]. Herein, we report the change of the thermophysical
properties of 4-MeO-Azo in confinement.
Please take a further look in "Anhänge" (appendix).
