Aerogel-based PCMs improve thermal management, reduce microwave emissions in electronic devices - EurekAlert


<p><em>Electronic devices are getting more and more complex as they are built to carry out an ever-increasing number of functions. This can be seen in the increased functionality in our personal devices such as our phones, tablets and watches, let alone in industrial devices. However, their growing complexity can lead to performance and safety issues. These issues include device overheating or emitting microwaves that can result in health issues and that can reduce a device&rsquo;s and interfere with other devices.Electronic devices are getting more and more complex as they are built to carry out an ever-increasing number of functions.
