The thermal properties of the binary system composed of lauric acid (LA) and nonanoic acid (NA) and its binary phase diagram were studied. To put this binary system into practice, the mixture with 96wt% of LA was selected, and it has a phase change temperature of 41oC and a latent heat of 163 J g-1, which is suitable for domestic water heating application. Besides, its thermal and chemical structure stability, thermal conductivity, degree of supercooling and thermal reliability were investigated by thermogravimetric analyzer (TGA), fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectrophotometer, thermal conductivity apparatus (TCA), T-history method and accelerated thermal cycle test for 1000 melt/freeze cycles, separately. The results of above tests indicated that the mixture has a remarkable thermal stability, a good chemical structure stability, no supercooling and an excellent thermal reliability. Therefore, the mixture can be a potential PCM used for thermal energy storage.
