The collection, storage, and use of energy and information are important issues for overcoming the global energy shortage while satisfying the demand for information transmission. This research reports a nano-Fe3O4 and erythritol (ER)-functionalized, cross-linked methyl cellulose aerogel (MC-EP) composite that has the characteristics of phase-change energy storage as the magnetic and ultraviolet responses requisite for light-to-heat conversion and storage. The nano-Fe3O4 particles in MC-EP-ER-75 were fixed and filled into pore structures in MC-EP. ER was used to form an effective combination with MC-EP. The addition of nano-Fe3O4 compensated for the low thermal conductivity of ER. The MC-EP-ER-75 was able to store solar radiation-induced energy due to the loading of ER at a photothermal conversion efficiency of 79.67% and a light-to-heat conversion efficiency of 79.67%. The results of thermal stability (TGA) analysis showed that MC-EP-ER-75 was thermally degraded acceptably below 200 °C. The differential scanning calorimetry curve and latent heat values (melting/crystallization enthalpies of 314.8 and 197.9 J/g, respectively) of MC-EP-ER-75 did not change after 100 cycles. In addition, it exhibited excellent saturation magnetization, super-paramagnetism, and ultraviolet shielding, as well as a rapid response to the ultraviolet and magnetic fields. This provided a way to prepare light-to-heat conversion-storage-release materials and ultraviolet-magnetic sensors that can be used in renewable resources.
