After determining the overall market size using the market size estimation processes explained above, the market was divided into several segments and subsegments. To complete the overall market engineering process and determine the exact statistics for each market segment and subsegment, data triangulation and market breakdown procedures were employed, as applicable. The data was triangulated by studying various factors and trends from both the demand and supply sides in the phase change materials industry.
According to the Phase Change Material Industry Association (PCMIA), “Phase change materials are compounds that absorb, store, and release a large amount of heat at a relatively constant temperature by changing their physical state. When a phase change material freezes, it releases a large amount of energy as latent heat, whereas when such material melts, it absorbs a large amount of heat from the environment.” Heat stored in the materials is called latent heat, due to which, phase change materials are also known as latent heat storage materials. Phase change materials absorb and release heat by liquefying and solidifying at set temperatures. The natural latent heat property of phase change materials helps maintain a structure’s temperature and prevent sudden external changes. Fluctuations in ambient temperature recharge advanced phase change materials, making them suitable for everyday applications.
