Through the in-situ polymerization method,a kind of phase change materials microcapsule was prepared by using melamine-urea-formaldehyde resin as the shell material and a phase change material as the core,of which the melt point and phase change enthalpy are 24℃ and 225.5J/g respectively.The penetrability and strength of microcapsule were investigated by altering the mole ratio of urea to melamine.The thermal damage mechanism is that the phase change materials leak out from the microcapsule when they are heated,and the breakage of the shell was due to the thermal expansion of the core and shell materials at high temperature.The damage temperature of the microcapsule shell can be obtained by TGA.The strength of the shell was evaluated through observing the surface change under pressure by mean of scanning electron microscopy.The penetrability of the microcapsule was characterized in ethyl alcohol by mean of 752 spectrophotometer.As a result,the average diameter of the microcapsule is smaller than 5μm,and the particle size is centralized when the dropping rate of the solidifying solvent is less than 0.8mL/min.The mass loss temperature of the microcapsule can be further enhanced up to 30℃ while the reaction system contains 20%(mass fraction) urea.The microcapsules do not rupture under a pressure of 6.0MPa,and the core material leaks out very slowly from the microcapsule in ethyl alcohol.
