[Display omitted] Microcapsules containing phase change material (PCM) paraffin as the internal phase and melamine-urea-formaldehyde (MUF) as the external shell were synthesized by in situ polymerization in the study. The effects of processing conditions (including core-to-shell ratio, concentration...
