Experimental case study for optimizing heat sink performance using ZnO nanocarriers integrated with phase change materials for environmental sustainability by Muhammad Farooq, Imran Zahid, M. Yasar Javaid, Noreen Sher Akbar, Enio Pedone Bandarra Filho, M. Farrukh Shahzad, M. Imran Khan, Mohammad Ilyas Khan, Mohammad Rehan, Fahid Riaz

“…Accordingly, phase change materials (PCMs) were employed for thermal management; however, their low thermal conductivity limits their effectiveness in temperature-sensitive electronic systems. PCMs can be made more thermally conductive with the use of nanocarriers-based phase change materials (NcPCMs), which could lower system temperatures and increase device operational lifetimes. …”
