Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
• PEG and MXene sponge enhance thermal management and energy storage efficiency. • High latent heat capacity of 162.9 J/g with a 95.2% retention efficiency. • Achieves 95.6% solar-to-thermal conversion efficiency under xenon light. • Thermoelectric generator converts latent heat to sustained electrical output. • Innovative method addresses solar energy intermittency for continuous supply.
