Corrosion-resistant and cost-effective energy storage containers for mining

Why is corrosion a problem in energy storage systems?

This problem will shorten the service life of the energy storage system and even lead to a serious leakage. This paper analyzes the corrosion mechanism of common metals, summarizes the corrosion research status of phase change materials, and summarizes several common corrosion protection methods.

Can corrosion inhibitors be used in energy storage?

Adding corrosion inhibitors has become one of the main anti-corrosion methods. The technology is used in many production processes, including the production of petroleum products. At present, in the field of energy storage, research on corrosion inhibitors is also in progress.

Why is corrosion resistance important for macro packaging?

For macro packaging, ensuring the corrosion resistance of packaging materials in the TES system has become its main problem, because it is not only related to the safety of food in the transportation process but also related to the long-term use and complete function of the entire energy storage system , .

Can PCM be used as energy storage media?

When using PCM as energy storage media, the corrosion problem is also extremely important, because different PCM for different packaging materials corrosion is also very different. PCM will inevitably cause varying degrees of corrosion to both metals and polymers, damaging the storage containers to varying degrees and reducing their life.
