Abstract
Nowadays, the need of thermal storage is paramount to let the renewable energy sources be competitive and reliable in the energy market. Thermochemical heat storage, especially sorption heat storage, has a strong potential to store huge amount of thermal energy with theoretically no losses. Water absorption of salt hydrates guarantees the highest energy density, up to around 3 GJ/m3 for MgSO4∙7H2O, but lacking in good mass and heat transport properties. On the other hand, pure adsorbents such as zeolites 13X assure a better mass and heat transfer due to their better hydrothermal stability, however having lower energy densities (around 0,6 GJ/m3) and high prices.
Composite materials combine the above-mentioned materials properties, achieving acceptable energy densities and low costs
