Verwendung von Mikrokapseln als Latentwärmespeicher

摘要

The invention relates to the application of microcapsules I with one or more lipophilic substances as core material. Said lipophilic substances have a solid/liquid phase transition at a temperature ranging from -20 to 120 DEG C and a polymer which is used as a shell and can be obtained by means of radical polymerization of a monomer mixture containing 30 to 100 wt.%, referring to the total weight of the monomers, one or more C1-C24-alkyl esters of the acrylic acid and/or methylacrylic acid (monomer I), 0 to 80 wt.%, referring to the total weight of the monomers, one bi- or polyfuntional monomer (monomer II) which is insoluble or poorly soluble in water, and 0 to 40 wt.%, referring to the total weight of the monomers, and other monomers (monomer III). The microcapsules can be used as latent heat accumulators. The invention also relates to novel microcapsules Ia, spray-dried microcapsules Ia', methods for the production thereof, and to shaped bodies and coating masses containing said microcapsules.
