AB  - This paper is focused on preparation and performance analysis of a series of 
      form-stable phase change materials (FSPCMs), based on eutectic mixtures as phase 
      change materials (PCMs) for thermal energy storage and high-density polyethylene 
      (HDPE)-ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA) polymer as supporting materials. The PCMs 
      were eutectic mixtures of tetradecanol (TD)-capric acid (CA), TD-lauric acid 
      (LA), and TD-myristic acid (MA), which were rarely explored before. Thermal 
      properties of eutectic mixtures and FSPCMs were measured by differential scanning 
      calorimeter (DSC). The onset melting/solidification temperatures of form-stable 
      PCMs were 19.13  degrees C/13.32  degrees C (FS TD-CA PCM), 24.53  degrees C/24.92  degrees C (FS TD-LA PCM), and 
      33.15  degrees C/30.72  degrees C (FS TD-MA PCM), respectively, and latent heats were almost 
      greater than 90 J/g. The surface morphologies and chemical stability of 
      form-stable PCM were surveyed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and 
      Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, respectively. The thermal 
      cycling test revealed that the thermal reliability of these three form-stable 
      PCMs was good. Thermal storage/release experiment indicated 
      melting/solidification time was shortened by introducing 10 wt % aluminum powder 
      (AP). It is concluded that these FSPCMs can act as potential building thermal 
      storage materials in terms of their satisfactory thermal properties.
