Abstract

The paper gives some comments about the potential use of plastic crystals in energy storage. The main point deals with the possibilities of binary solid solution formation. Three binary phase diagrams in the pentaerythritol series are commented on.

Zusammenfassung

Es werden einige Bemerkungen über die potentielle Verwendung von Plast-Kristallen in der Energiespeicherung gemacht. Dabei geht es hauptsächlich um die Möglichkeit der Bildung binärer fester Lösungen. Drei binäre Phasendiagramme der Pentaerythrit-reihe wurden diskutiert.
